 * I'd like to propose that a new category called "www" be created and
 * the following ports be moved there:

 * Feelings?  Maybe after the 2.1 cut?

Well, I proposed something like this one a long time ago and people
(generally) complained. ;)

I think just splitting "www" from "net" is kinda confusing though, as
"www" is clearly the subset of "net".  Maybe we can call it "net-www"
or "net-web" or something?

By the way, making it a subdirectory of "net" is not a good idea, it's
already hard enough to maintain all those ports, adding another
directory irregularity will increase the pain too much.
