If there is a refusal to keep the port in the tree then the folks at OpenOffice will HAVE to do something about it.
With utmost respect I would suggest that this decision needs to be made at the highest level so that the crap is removed. There is too much **** in the ports that needs tidying up and this is one of the most blatant abuses. It sounds like a game of chicken that is being won by the "folks at OpenOffice" to the detriment of everyone else. In my view the buck stops at whoever decides what is kept in the ports. david _______________________________________________ freebsd-ports@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-ports To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
