Subject: Grand Omission from WebSite
> Dear Mr. Questions: I have just spent about one-half hour "browsing"
> the website, looking for the list of package distributions,
> unsuccessfully.
> Perhaps the most dismaying was the page:
> http://www.freebsd.org/applications.html
> which contains a link self-described as "packages collection" which
> takes you to the OS distribution page, unrelated to packages.
> Entering "package" or "packages" into the (sic) search engine each
> yield a null result. It is a crying shame that one of the most unique
> and fruitful features of my favorite operating system should be so
> obfuscated.
> Thanks,

most people install from the ports collection if they have decent access and
they are listed on the website.
