--- Comment #8 from Richard Gallamore <ultima at freebsd.org> ---
This look cool. I'v learned some new things just reading the script. I have a
couple things I want to suggest.

First, I create a repository and start some version control. I recommend using
git. It is a bit complex and difficult to use at first, but it pays off. Create
a github account and add it there. On the port, add USE_GITHUB= yes with the
required variables, usually being GH_ACCOUNT, and sometimes GH_PROJECT. This
will fix most of the problems I see right now.

${PREFIX}/share/${PORTNAME}, this is the same as ${DATADIR}

Overall I like what you are doing, thanks for your contributions I look forward
to testing. =]
