It so happens that I usually send two-four followups per ports PR for a submitter to polish the patches (BTW, nobody complained so far). In that case if all ports are at one PR that may become a nightmare. ;-) WBR -- bsam ___ freebsd-ports@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-ports To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

That's what I'd do. I'd say that this depends upon the sibmitters' experience with ports PRs. If there is none committers' questions, etc at the PR - it's fine. Otherwise I'd prefer to deal with ports per PR.

This is going to be tricky :-) Heh. :) The way I would do it is to submit the ports one by one and keep the synopsis recognizable: [NEW PORT] Apple WebObjects Deployment Environment: www/foobar I think Edwin's advice is good, the only thing I'd add is maybe an "N of M" to the synopsis to make it easier to keep them grouped.

This is going to be tricky :-) The way I would do it is to submit the ports one by one and keep the synopsis recognizable: [NEW PORT] Apple WebObjects Deployment Environment: www/foobar That way it will be easy for the person who will take care of them to find them all, and can respond to problems of them individually. Once all your PRs have gone through and you have the numbers, send another PR which describes the order of all PRs and the possible ceavats and other issues which might happen during the processing of the PRs. Or, if you have spare time and a network connection (I think that the last pre-requisite is pretty dumb :-) drop by on #bsdcode at irc.efnet.org and ask if somebody wants to help you getting these PRs done.

Appropriate way of submitting multiple related ports at once?
Hi, I have written a collection of ports (16 in total) for building a typical Apple WebObjects deployment environment. As most of these ports depend on one another in some way could someone advise what the most appropriate way to submit these ports as a bundle would be?
