>Description:
Hello,

    I am the Product Manager for Sleepycat Software and I was very pleased to 
see the addition of Berkeley DB XML 1.2.1 to the ports tree.  Thank you for the 
work.  I do have one request.  As it turns out, there is a project called dbXML 
(http://www.dbxml.org/).  The FreeBSD ports have that project as 
/usr/ports/databases/dbxml.  We have spoken with the dbXML team and agreed to 
use the name 'bdb-xml' rather than 'dbxml'.  My request is that our port be 
named in that way so as not to cause confusion between the two similar but 
distinct products.

regards, and thank you again,

-greg
>How-To-Repeat:
