Hi Jordan! The MAINTAINER setting in the apache13-php3 port is a little bit problematic. The current MAINTAINER Stefan Herrmann <stefan@asterix.webaffairs.net> did the initial work for the port. I finished his work, i. e. made it actually work/compile. The following version updates were also done by me. Currently I am working on an version with a dialog based configuration similar to ghostscript5. This version will also contain upgrades to apache 1.3.1 and php 3.0.3. The idea behind it is to create a "super" apache port which incorporates all the others (normal, ssl, ...). Of course this has to be discussed with the other maintainers first. I had a conversation with Andreas Klemm whether it is possible to join the FreeBSD project as a committer to work especially in the ports area. I would like to start maintaining the apache13-php3 and mysql port actively (the mysql port hasn't been maintained for over a half year by now and is even set to broken for the moment 8(, btw. PR ports/7347 refers to a working version). Furthermore I have a few other ports in my local tree which are interesting for ISPs especially, e. g. a RADIUS-aware qpopper. It can be used to authenticate users via RADIUS and serve multiple domains with just one server. Some other ideas regarding the ports system itself are running around my mind, e. g. a CONFLICTS system inspired by NetBSD. I really would appreciate to get a chance to realize all this mentioned stuff. 8-) Best regards Dirk On Sat, Aug 29, 1998 at 07:35:42AM -0700, Jordan K.

The changes are very simple. -- e-mail: ibex@physik.tu-berlin.de
