No, of course it isn't, as you already well know. But we (portmgr) have made _a_ decision that in our opinion make maintainance easier. I doubt that will make you happy, because you clearly believe we were better off before. But this is one of those meta-discussions where the meta-discussion takes time that isn't going to be productive now that the decision has been made. Discuss it all you like, but I consider the matter to be resolved and it to be time to move on to the other hard problems in the Ports Collection. I restate that portmgr's "authority" is mostly the power of persuasion except in extreme cases. We won't be doing any backouts over this one. We're just going to say "this is another one of our recommendations to the committers that this is the way that we think is best for ports." mcl
