Hello. I recommend that the port `www/netscape4-communicator' to be applied below changes: 1) Make `NDIR' to movable, and set the default location to `PREFIX/netscape'. This would make enable to coexist netscape browsers version 3 and 4. As you know, version 3's directory is hardcoded and couldn't be moved. 2) Stop calling ns-install. The script cleans up WRKSRC/* and users wouldn't be able to do `make reinstall'. 3) Make www/netscape4-communicator/Makefile to be includable from other netscape ports to reduce maintenance cost. See editors/xemacs-mule/Makefile for an example. I'd like to be waiting for your idea about them. If you are too busy to respond, I'll commit the changes at 5 days later. Thanks.
