None from me. If there are users that absolutely cannot switch to plan9port (e.g. because of architecture support), they should speak up now. > > [1] - http://sam.cat-v.org/ > > > > > > // gsoares > > > > Makes sense to me. > > Should we setup an automatic upgrade path in quirks and plan9port's > PLIST (@conflict/@pkgpath)?

Not sure if I'd want to special-case sam like that. It's not done for any other program, so I'd prefer to just have people cope and set PLAN9 and PATH appropriately in their environment. Also, we'd have to pull in at least samterm and samsave into /usr/local/bin, and that's where it gets messy.
