Actually proposed name for the category: dev-tos: original proposed name dev-tinyos: better than dev-tos, and still shorter than dev-embedded ;-) dev-embedded: leave the 20 ebuilds in dev-embedded or try to fit them in other existing categories (maybe some packages can be moved to sys-tos or sys-tinyos: in order to go with sys-fbsd dev-toyos or dev-alternateos: in order to allow minix and co. to be placed here. Personally I prefer to keep TinyOS related ebuild in the same category. Having tossim and tinyviz (the emulator) in app-emulation, and all the sub library needed by tinyviz in dev-java may be confusing for tinyos users. But it can be done. TinyOS tarball includes lots of apps. Shipping them splitted in a lot of ebuilds may be proibitive without a dedicated category. But I can choose to ship them in a single ebuild, move the ebuilds into existing categories and get rid of dev-tinyos. -- Sandro (Sanchan) -- [email protected] mailing list
