Once we have the new ports working it should be trivial for anyone of us to take care of this renaming part. And yes, I would somehow rename the existing ports to buildbot-0.8 or so, and make buildbot whatever the current version is. Also: - The buildbot-worker now has a different name than the old buildbot-slave, so there we won't even have the name conflict (it would still be nice to provide consistent naming though, so 0.8 suffix sounds reasonable). - Most of what's in buildbot would probably be packages as a python module (I guess?). We can discuss further once Rajdeep submits the ports. (To Rajdeep: it's also not a problem to submit what you currently have as a Draft PR.) Mojca
