Description Mark Linimon 2004-03-11 21:40:18 UTC 
	The top-level 'ports' webpage does not yet reflect the new
	net-mgmt category.  The category is already listed in the
	files 'categories', so it seems likely that no one remembered
	to run the script.

Fix: 

Short-term: run the script.
	Longer-term: document the correct procedure for adding a new
	ports category.  I will undertake this task.
How-To-Repeat: 	(n/a)

Without having checked I'm rather sure the reason is that those pages
are based on INDEX and that hasn't been updated since the addition of
the new category.

The proper solution is of course not to use INDEX from CVS but a freshly
build one, but I don't have the time to implement that at the moment.

When I asked about this on cvs-doc, kris said that same thing that simon
has said (that the Web page is generated from the INDEX file, which
hadn't been updated).

It sounds as though Kris will soon have a permanent fix 
for this problem.
