To clarify, there are two READMEs involved: * x11/mplayer/pkg/README - user docs. make it into the package. * x11/mplayer/README - notes for me and others working on the port. This is the way I did print/texlive2010 too. I can change this if you like, perhaps the comments for developers should all be in comments in the Makefile? However, I don't think it is that important. Perhaps we should introduce the convention of using the name README.porters? -- Best Regards Edd Barrett http://www.theunixzoo.co.uk
