Modified files:
net-im Makefile
Added files:
net-im/pino Makefile distinfo pkg-descr pkg-plist
Log:
Pino is a simple and fast Twitter and Identi.ca client using GTK2.
It is written in Vala language and compiled to the native binary
code.
Despite that I can imagine why would someone might want to put things
like Twitter clients under `instant messengers', doesn't `www' look a
better category for these?
So you want me repocopy all these ?
net/py-twitterA python wrapper around the Twitter API
net/rubygem-rubytter A simple twitter library
net/rubygem-twitter Command line twits and an API wrapper
net/rubygem-twitter4r Twitter client API in pure Ruby
net/twituxGNOME client for Twitter
net-im/pidgin-twitter A pidgin plugin to help twitting via pidgin
net-im/qwit A Qt4-based lightweight Twitter client
net-im/qwit-devel A Qt4-based lightweight Twitter client
net-im/rubygem-termtter A terminal based twitter client
net-im/ttytterCommand-line Twitter client in Perl
net-im/twirssiTwitter script to irssi
net-im/twitmail Curses-based mail-like interface to twitter
No, of course not, that's not what I said. I'm talking only about that
1) we probably need to decide where we put Twitter-like and other
microblogging stuff from now on; and 2) we might move ports that do not
require repocopies.
I agree with you,
What do you think about net-im as main category and www as second
category? And if we get more social programs maybe a virtual
category for social tools?
Touch choice, I would say. As it is sometimes described as SMS of the
Internet, both `net-im' and `www' seem to be appropriate categories.
Twitter might be viewed as some Web-2.0'ish mix of IRC+ICQ+SMS, which
kinda votes for `net-im', but recently lots of new sites started to use
Twitter to collect people's opinions on #sometopic, which IMHO makes it
more of webblog/commentary instrument of the Web, thus asking for `www'
category (of course, we are still talking about short and instant
messages, so `net-im' still makes sense). I'm, frankly, not quite sure
myself. I've CCed ports@ to see what other people have to say, I hope
you don't mind.
