Maybe it's wrong to > ass-u-me that anything in a port Makefile's CATEGORIES definition is a > valid category? I looked in the /usr/ports/Makefile, saw no pilot, and asked the question. Satoshi has since admitted that a pilot was to be made, and asked about correct naming ... maybe you missed that? Since 3Com got into legal problems with the name "pilot", he was asking about, I think, "palm" or maybe "palm-pilot" or (I don't remember). I think, if you want the category, you ought to respond here about a better name. Satoshi sounded ready to do it. ----------------------------+----------------------------------------------- Chuck Robey | Interests include any kind of voice or data chuckr@glue.umd.edu | communications topic, C programming, and Unix. 213 Lakeside Drive Apt T-1 | Greenbelt, MD 20770 | I run Journey2 and picnic (FreeBSD-current) (301) 220-2114 | and jaunt (NetBSD). ----------------------------+----------------------------------------------- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-ports" in the body of the message
