Great idea Pau!
You might like to add www/sakai though its quite dated (ports is
10.2;
current version 20.1)
Indeed. Not sure how I missed it, thanks. I'll wait a few more days
before filing a PR, in case I missed something else or there's an
objection.
I, too, love the idea. I would suggest that a sub-category of
"suggested learning path" programs might be an asset as well,
including useful languages to examine.
Can you give me examples of which ports would go into that 4th
subcategory?
We might also consider
resurrecting Knuth's code+language concepts and tools.
I'd wait until that category gets off the ground to consider that.
Assuming this category is accepted, I would then suggest an
announcement post to the FreeBSD-advocacy@ and FreeBSD-women@ lists,
and perhaps notification to the KDE and EduBuntu core lists. :D
I'm not sure why FreeBSD-women. Can you elaborate?
