I think sometimes we act as if code that is removed from the tree is gone forever, with no possibility of it ever returning. I don't understand this attitude. :) If something is unsupported it should be removed, Q.E.D. There is no reason to think of possible reasons that we might want it to stay. Meanwhile, FYI, ports/lang/icc7 has been marked DEPRECATED since 8/8 with removal scheduled for 2010-09-01 based on the distinfo not containing a SHA256 line and (AFAICS) no distfiles available. If and only if someone wants to actively develop a newer version the old port will remain in the repo and can still be used as the basis of a repo copy to a newer version if that is necessary and/or desirable. hth, Doug -- Improve the effectiveness of your Internet presence with a domain name makeover! http://SupersetSolutions.com/ Computers are useless.
