--=-WsyAhv+yK9IN1KgtR5md Content-Type: text/plain Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable After listening to feedback, both on the list as well as direct, I think I'm going to leave things the way they are for now. I'm doing this for a number of reasons. One, Mozilla is a huge port, and the fewer sweeping changes made, the better. Two, right now there are only two releases. If Mozilla wants to keep branching and supporting branches, we can change things later. Three, I've updated the pkg-descr's of both ports to accurately reflect their descriptions as listed at mozilla.org. Four, this change really hasn't confused that many people. People that want to use Mozilla 1.1 are still doing so despite the -devel label.=20 However, nothing is set in stone. Things can always change in the future. While this decision may upset some people, I think right now, it will give the GNOME team time to hunt down and fix other problems to prepare for 4.7-RELEASE, 5.0-DP2, and 5.0-RELEASE (e.g. build problems on Alpha). portmgr@ is, of course, free to step in and overturn my decision, but for now, I'm standing by it.=20 Joe=20 --=20 Joe Marcus Clarke FreeBSD GNOME Team :: marcus@FreeBSD.org http://www.FreeBSD.org/gnome --=-WsyAhv+yK9IN1KgtR5md Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name=signature.asc Content-Description: This is a digitally signed message part -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.0.7 (FreeBSD) iD8DBQA9eaYKb2iPiv4Uz4cRAg2JAJ4yXvBDTQHX+fm4UIMQZ2rTwn8ydwCfda5C SJ7mZx5Z0kbeKKw87u0qCkU= =EWnj -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --=-WsyAhv+yK9IN1KgtR5md-- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-ports" in the body of the message
