local ports (moved from freebsd-arch)

All,

I originally put this in freebsd-arch, then realized this should  
probably go here in freebsd-ports, so I am moving it here...

I propose a new port category called local or site.  This would not  
get updated with the cvsup, but would allow people to have a place to  
put ports that they want to keep internal to their site.  I am  
currently exporting a ports tree to a bunch of other hosts and it  
would be handy if I could just put ports for our proprietary apps in  
there and not worry about keeping a forked bsd.port.mk.

Sincerely,
Bjorn Nelson
