If they are consistently placed in a category, place the new port there. Given a choice between consistency and accuracy in classification, consistency is arguably a bit more important in this context. If there is *any* doubt, don't hesitate to post a "where should I put this..." question to ports@freebsd.org. It is much better to do that than move a port after committing it. [Personally I tend to the port categorizations/classification debates. My academic training and most of my real world work experience is in library and information science, so I have some strong opinions on the subject that other have seen as an excessive obsession for splitting hairs. :) ] -john To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe cvs-all" in the body of the message
