I think the existing port of pbs should be moved into sysutils, though. And the license now on openpbs is pretty compatible (it's basically the FBSD license with a requirement to tell you how to get the source - how else are you gonna build it? - and it has the dreaded advertising clause. I have the port 99% done. I want to some feedback on the license, thought. -- AlanE To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-ports" in the body of the message
