I would like to create a new category "geography", encompassing the following types of ports: - Mapping - editing, viewing, format conversion (eg. graphics/jumpgis) - Geographic information systems and utilities (eg. databases/postgis) - GPS applications (eg. astro/gpsman) - Weather (eg. astro/gdesklets-goodweather) - Other software/services related to location (eg. net/GeoIP) There are more than 50 candidates for this category, which you can read in the PR ports/64304. I intend to sift through the ports tree very soon, and compile a complete list of ports which I think belong to such a category. If you have any thoughts or want to discuss the idea, please follow up here. Cheers Sam
