I think that the pkgng guys want us to stick to the story that the 
application is just 'pkg', and it is the project which is 'pkgng' (so that 
we can stop talking about pkgng once it's the standard way of doing 
things, and we don't ever end up with 'pkgngng').  So this would probably 
be "the historical &os; package management commands, [...] or using the 
newer <application>pkg</application> comands".
