>  CVSweb on OpenBSD.org and allbsd.org, so, sources can quickly be
>  checked.
>  Scripts that generate the whole site are available
>  in github and bitbucket, under /cnst/ports-readmes.

>          Why would I use ports.su instead of openports.se?
>
>  Due to ports.su being based on sqlports / ports-readmes:
>
>   * any given port can have more than one parent category
>
>   * category pages will include all the ports that list said category,
>     and not just those for which the category is primary
>
>   * library, build and run dependencies are listed for each port
>
>   * based on official sqlports -- no parsing bugs ^_^
>
>  Basically, not trying to reinvent a square wheel.
>
>  Plus, a shorter and simpler ports.su address is better if you
>  are too tired to type, or want to look through the ports tree
>  on a PDA. :-P

>  Comments, questions, forks and pull requests are welcome.
