Well, "make search key="movabletype"" finds the port, and it has  
been named "MT" since 5 years. I maintain it since 4 years, and this  
is the first time someone complained. MT is the short name used all  
over the website (like "MT Day", "MT Beta", "MT professionals", "MT  
community", "Styles for MT ported from WordPress" etc.). So


So i am not yet convinced we gain much by renaming it.


I agree.  What I would suggest is adding "MovableType" to the COMMENT  
in the Makefile.  That way psearch (and presumably other tools) will  
also find it.  This will have none of the difficulties involved with  
renaming a port.


And thanks for maintaining MT.

Cheers,

Argh!  I tried psearch which didn't turn that up, but did turn up some  
other MovableType related things that had the "mt" abbreviation in  
their names, so I even tried


 ls -d ports/www/*mt*

but, of course, that didn't catch this.  It would be good to change  
the COMMENT for the port to include the term MovableType so that  
psearch (and presumably other tools) will catch it.


Thank you.

I have no idea...  I guess it might be better if we mention
'MovableType' in COMMENT=, but it seems that 'make search' is smart enough:
