I think this can't be take as a net/net-mgmt thing. It's all about a=20 dozen of ports. Other languages get: ports/arabic: -> 8 ports/french: -> 26 ports/german: -> 29 ports/hebrew: -> 8 ports/hungarian: -> 10 ports/japanese: -> ... (a lot) ports/korean: -> ... (a lot) ports/polish: -> 16 ports/portuguese: -> 16 ports/russian: -> 37 ports/ukranian: -> 10 ports/vietnamese: -> 16 My initial patch cover all that I know really related to a spanish=20 locale now in the tree. My initial reference was ports/portuguese. I'm sure to be able to reach portuguese functionality after directory=20 creation and maintain it. I'm afraid this is not the same with a virtual category. I'm not so=20 profident with the FreeBSD ports system. =2D- josemi
