From: Vasil Dimov To: Vsevolod Stakhov Cc: FreeBSD-gnats-submit@FreeBSD.org Subject: Re: ports/82235: New port: mail/mutt-ng Date: Thu, 16 Jun 2005 09:29:24 +0300 -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Ok, let's end that useless conversation about the color of mutt-ng. > Mutt next generation (mutt-ng) is a fork of the well-known email client mutt > with the goal to both incorporate all the patches that are floating around in > the web, and to fix all the other little annoyances of mutt. Also this port is > using options structure that is more comfortable for some people including me. Name those "little annoyances of mutt", that mutt-ng fixes. The new features mutt-ng introduces and why are they useful. Also explain the situation when mutt crashes and mutt-ng does not. If this really happens with the latest version of mutt, consider sending a PR anyway, no matter whether mutt-ng enters /usr/ports/ or not. For example: 1. mutt and mutt-devel do A when I expect them to do B, which I find very annoying. This cannot be tuned via muttrc. 2. mutt-ng has this nice thing C that I use when I need to do D, this feature cannot be found in mail/mutt/files/ nor in mail/mutt-devel/files/. 3. etc. etc. etc. Just convince us that mutt-ng really worths.
