so maybe GIS is a little too narrow, but maybe putting stuff that deals with geography, locations, places in "geo"? 5 different earth or globe packages in two different categories - why? i can understand www/mod_geoip as that's strictly a www module, but GeoIP seems like it should live in geo. It takes a key and gives you back a value, where the key just happens to look a lot like an IP address, and the value has a reasonable chance of being a place on earth. i'm not sure tools designed for working with information about places on earth should belong in astronomy. astro/dgpsip astro/wmglobe astro/xearth astro/xworld misc/gpsd misc/garmin-utils mystuff/gps3d mystuff/gpsbabel net/GeoIP net/p5-Geo-IP www/mod_geoip x11/xglobe x11/xplanet -- GDB has a 'break' feature; why doesn't it have 'fix' too?
