I would propose to put it into pkg-descr, just like WWW line. Another possible benefit for having it in pkg-descr is that you can use COMMENT as a intro to the more verbose description in pkg-descr, by defining that the first line of pkg-descr is to be used as a COMMENT if no COMMENT: field is present in pkg-descr. -Maxim To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-ports" in the body of the message
