Hi,

	After quite some feedback from all of you comes my
latest version. This new one follows the chronological order of
events to the letter.

"First, send mail to &a.portmgr; with the repo copy request listing
the reasons for it.  Next, if &a.portmgr; approves it, &a.cvs; will
do a repository copy from the old location/name to the new
location/name.  You will then receive a notice, at which point you
are expected to perform the following:"

	A couple of observations:

	1) the 1st 'repo copy' element is used as an abbreviation
	since we call this a 'repo copy' request. It's part of the
	FreeBSD committers lexicon as it is. :)

	2) the 2nd 'repository copy' element is not used as an
	abbreviation since cvs will perform a repository copy.
	That's the real deal. :)

	3) 'location/name' is being used for historical reasons.
	Sometimes, a port is moved around the ports tree to a new
	location (new category); sometimes, it is just renamed
	(copied to a new name in the same category). It is a bit
	big but informational.

	Any changes on this last version?

	Regards,
