Todays version of the handbook has no mention of games, but the bsdinstall installer has option to install games and there is a ports collection category called games. bsdconfig has no games installer. So what is the general status of games? Is the handbook correct and bsdinstall and the ports collection just never got cleaned up or does the handbook need a chapter on games? Do you really think stage is going to be added to those game ports? Or is the underlining intention of killing all ports that are not staged by june 30 the method being used to get rid of all the game ports?
