>The point is to enable people who *do* "want to do such a thing"; >if you don't, then your opinion on the matter is not requested, Then I think you should remove <port-i386@netbsd.org> from the distribution, too. if two trivial, syntactic details -- using "_" vs /" as separators, and the endian-ness of the name components on either of the separator -- are such show-stoppers for your scheme, then I would be surprised if anyone here wants it. (I'm on port-i386, so I'll still see all this, eventually. I try and answer personal e-mail in real-time, and mailing-list traffic much later and erratically, which is why I asked you to remove my name; and why I'm now asking you to consider removing port-i386, too). >only your opinion on implementation details (assuming you are a >competent coder). You've had my opinion. If you don't like it, feel free to ignore it. I've already asked if we can let this slide. Can't we do that? You might also consider dropping the unwarranted personal shots about someone's competence, simply because they have the temerity to disagree with you. I don't anyone ever looks good doing that. --Jonathan
