Re: New port web page



Hi !

This is the exact text thas was on older web page. Yes, it sound ambigous.
But I don't know how to reformulate it. So, I leave it like this. Change it
if you can.
David Brownlee suggest me to run it through weblint (from pkgsrc) with "-x
netscape" option.
Could you do it before (or after) uploading ?

Thanks.
