I would like to create a new category "geography", encompassing the
following types of ports:
- Mapping - editing, viewing, format conversion (eg. graphics/jumpgis)
- Geographic information systems and utilities (eg. databases/postgis)
- GPS applications (eg. astro/gpsman)
- Weather (eg. astro/gdesklets-goodweather)
- Other software/services related to location (eg. net/GeoIP)
There are more than 50 candidates for this category, which you can
read in the PR ports/64304.
I intend to sift through the ports tree very soon, and compile a
complete list of ports which I think belong to such a category. If
you have any thoughts or want to discuss the idea, please follow up
here.
Cheers
Sam
