 José:
 
 Thank you or your port submission.  We appreciate our developers and 
 contributors and wanted to make sure that you are still interested in 
 this port submission.
 Once your port is accepted, updates and patches to it will be much faster.
 
 Some quick comments, since I have not really tried to build this yet:
 
 I noticed this port needs bash.  Bash is not included in the distributed 
 version of FreeBSD, and should only be included as a dependency if these 
 is some functionality in bash that is not in /bin/sh
 
 Can you rework this to not require bash or do you feel that your 
 files/datamodeler.script.in absolutely requires bash?
 
 Also, please do not use IGNORE= to inform user about vendor licensing 
 and distribution licensing, please look at the following port for an 
 example of a standard way to do this.
 
 /usr/ports/java/jdk16
 
 Test your final port with portlint -N, then portlint -abt.
 
 when you are done, resubmit your shar and someone will take a fresh look 
 it it.
 (actually, you might want to ask that this port be closed, since it sat 
 so long.  opening a new port after this is closed will make it more 
 likely a new committer will look at this port)
 
 Thank you again, and sorry that these small issues were not communicated 
 to you earlier.
