> Want to see Bash imported?? if that's what it takes to stop the "::".
I'm sorry, but I don't see the tone of this comment as being
consistent with the "developer relations" section of the handbook.
Bikesheds about filename separators are one thing; bikesheds
about duelling shell imports are quite another. The former
might or might not produce a working consensus; the latter
is completely doomed from the outset.
Please, let's keep this to the filename-separator problem.
My own personal opinion? Unless we want to thrash the CVS
repository really, really, hard, and force a lot of people
to upgrade ports because of portrevision bumps, we ought
to let this sleeping dog lie.
But I'm not in a position to make policy on the issue, and
other people's mileage may vary.
