By the way, what do you think of the idea, instead of polluting the ports tree
with README.html everywhere, to have a simple script which dynamically
computes the page you want to look? All the information is in the INDEX file,
hence can be extracted instantaneously. It's only a question of having pretty
templates to show something nice, and a simple http server. For example i know
this is trivial to do with python BaseHTTPServer, but it should be as trivial
with perl or other similar tool.
