[RfD] Merging fortune ports

2013-12-21 Thread A.J. 'Fonz' van Werven
Howdy all, I happened to notice that there are already several misc/fortune* ports and it takes only the slightest bit of imagination to come up with several more. Hell, I alone can think of at least a dozen or so. However, we probably don't want to fill the ports tree with a whole bunch of ports
