You are free to prove me wrong * :-). Oh, it's fine then. My above comment was because you said "one of them" applied to a different directory. I assumed everything else were relative to the same directory. Sorry. * The new submitted port only adds three diffs, and they don't seem so big. Well, your original PR was over 2,000 lines long, most of which were new patches. That counts as fairly large. * OTOH Brian Waters is maintaining a fully prepatched version in a single * tarball, when he ports his version (he will) w3c-httpd can be nuked. * Although his version is better, I don't want to maintain (or port) his * version because it's based on version 3.0, while our version is 3.0A. That's probably better. Satoshi To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-ports" in the body of the message
