After some responses to my question if there's an interest on a software list which software can be compiled or ported without problems I will start a weekly announcement for such a list. This list isn't intended as a replacement for the packages in *BSD but as an addition to these packages so not everything has to be put in packages so we could save space on FTP servers. To provide such a list I need help from you, the *BSD community ! Please try to port dozens of programs from other UNIX communities to *BSD and tell me (via email !) where to find them if they easy can be ported or with just few minor changes ! Please add a description of the program what it does and where to find it in the following form: category:server(inetnum):path/program:description [changes] E.g. category is communication or diskutils etc., server and inetnum is the address of the FTP-server, path/program is the path and the name of the program wher to find this application, description could be some short statements and optional minimal changes. If you have any suggestions and proposals so feel free to write me at uwp@cs.tu-berlin.de ! I hope you will send me lots of Messages !
