Hello, I just now noticed that in the Porter handbook said: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/porters-handbook/porting-desc.html#AEN81 ================================================ It is recommended that you sign your name at the end of this file, as in: This is a port of oneko, in which a cat chases a poor mouse all over the screen. : (etc.) WWW: http://www.oneko.org/ - Satoshi asami@cs.berkeley.edu ================================================ I think, it's useless because most of us don't do it. Also, we already have the Whom: and MAINTAINER in the Makefile. It seems to me that sign our name in it is making no sense for pkg-descr as in description file.
