Actually, I don't mind the suggestion that the port be named cons-testbed. But, given the fact that the name of the original package itself is cons-test, and that every other OS package (RPM, deb, etc.) we have created for it took that name, I feel that it might just help confuse users when going across different platforms. [ Not that any FreeBSD user will ever need to use another OS :-) ] rv To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe cvs-all" in the body of the message
