Since nobody has objected to the idea of having ports references I don't see why not. The isue with categories or not can, as Ruslan noted, be handled by a man page tinderbox so I don't think that is a real problem. I understood on Ruslan that to add support for this it needs to be added to the upstream GNU groff so I don't know how long time it would be before port references could be used if it is decided that this is the way to go. --=20 Simon L.
