OK, "relatively soon" in pair with "when server infrastructure is ready" is much better that just "soon". > All this means is that you will have to put stuff in /etc/make.conf in > order to use pkg_tools, rather than the situation now, where you have to > put stuff in /etc/make.conf in order to use pkgng.
