 * From: Brandon Fosdick <bfoz@glue.umd.edu>

 * I'm getting ready to submit a few new ports. In all of the discussion
 * I've lost track of the what and when of what's actually being
 * implemented. The last I heard new ports should have the COMMENT line
 * moved to the Makefile and pkg/DESCR in the port's base directory
 * regardless of all of the other changes mentioned. Is this still the
 * case? What's the effective date for this change? If its soon I'll just
 * hold off on these submissions.

The big move will be done this weekend, but it doesn't include the
COMMENT -> Makefile change.  Anyway, why don't you just submit the
port using the new format so someone can commit it early next week. :)

You can try out the new format early by defining NEWLAYOUT when you
call make.  Make sure you have the latest bsd.port.mk.
