Once you've figured out how to do this, please let us know how the wording could be improved - it seems clear to me, but then I'm already familiar with the procedure. Basically: - Check your port complies with the "DOs and DONTs" section of the Porter's Handbook - Create a shar (shar `find port-dir`) - uuencode the shar if it's large - send-pr(1) If this doesn't help, which stage of the process do you find confusing?
