I wonder if it would make sense to import portmaster into FreeBSD SVN.=20=
=20
It=20is a tool targeting the FreeBSD ports tree and pkg infrastructure=20=
=20
and=20it looks like it is important for a not so small userbase.

While there are several committers within the contributors (I'm not=20=20
sure=20if this means they have write access to the repo or if it just=20=20
means=20that a pull request was accepted), there is more or less no=20=20
progress=20since 2013 (yes, a few commits there, but also useful pull=20=20
requests=20for e.g. local package installation with pkgng support which=20=
=20
are=20not integrated at all). If we look at how widespread the use of=20=20
portmaster=20still is (and I'm sure there are more people which use it=20=
=20
and=20are more cool-headed and just wait if there are some fixes coming=20=
=20
for=20it in the near future like it was the case for the pkgng switch),=20=
=20
it=20would make sense to have the (as it looks)=20=20
abandoned-on-github-portmaster-version=20in a FreeBSD controlled area.

Alternatively, how would a FreeBSD committer like Stefan or Torsten or=20=
=20
me=20or whoever gain write access to=20=20
https://github.com/freebsd/portmaster/=20so get some progress in the=20=20
official=20portmaster location and create a new release (sorry my=20=20
ignorance=20for github and how it works, I'm used to CVS/SVN workflows)?

Bye,
Alexander.
