How about under either Support or Miscellaneous? I like Support better, since the port pages frequently provide information for people that are thinking of installing Debian on a non-i386 architecture and, since they are also usually like Hardware Compat lists, the port pages usually fall under a support-like category (at least to me). This reminds me, what ever happened to making the Debian pages generic and putting i386-specific info into an i386 port page? I remember some intent to do so over a year ago, but it never happened. > Yes, though our port pages are in general somewhat suboptimal to be > highlighted :| The introductory page deserves mention, of course, but not > pages that have a "News" section from 1999, and those that are just generic > stuff. <sigh> True. I know that I need to keep up with the alpha pages quite a bit more and I've found a few of the other port pages to be less than helpful when I looked for more info. I keep meaning to file bugs against those or at least notify some of the arch contacts, but haven't gotten to it yet. C
