* Why hand-edit it? Just make the pkg/COMMENT changes I suggested and * then run another `make index' from the top. That way you've at least * preserved your investment in proper comments for the future and you * make myself and John Fieber happy. re-Making the index doesn't take * anywhere near as much time as remaking all the packages.. :-) Okay, you're right. So here it goes, the new freeze rule: Please go ahead and modify the pkg/COMMENT files of your ports (or those owned by nobody) to make them shorter, i.e., 62 characters or so. The name and version numbers are no longer necessary. This is only a partial lift of the freeze, and the rest of the tree is still under restriction. I'll do a "make index" and the necessary modifications when you tell me the release is going out, Jordan. Satoshi
