Submitting new packages

[jens.rehsack%bayerbbs.com@localhost]

Hi all,

I read in pkgsrc handbook, chap. 21.2, that a new package should be 
submitted as a uuencoded, gzip'ed tar archive.
In FreeBSD we're using shar(1) which is more comfortable (at least for me 
^^).
Just a question: Does your process strict requires the uuencoded, gzipped 
tar archive (though I must submit the pr's using the web-interface) or is 
a shar file ok, too?
Finally, I will create an alias or a small script creating the required 
format - so I do not want to initiate a big change - it's just a question.

Freundliche Grüße / Best Regards

Jens Rehsack
