hmm, such a page will likely be very contentless IMHO and therefore
I'd vote against it. The status of each port will be on the specific
*BSD pages (e.g. /ports/netbsd/) anyway, since
1) it's easier to maintain by different groups/people
2) it's sufficiently complex and differs from the other ports
3) different "subports" (i.e. i386 vs. alpha vs. *) have different
stati and that would make it hard to say something without going
into detail or generalizing too much.
4) AFAICT, at least OpenBSD has quite a different goal from
{free,Net}BSD (keeping as much from the OpenBSD userland as
possible)
I think we should put the various projects on the ports/ page under a
"Debian/*BSD" section, and link to the specific ports/{free,net,open}bsd/
pages from there.
My 2 cents...
Cheers,
Michael
p.s.: i think jimmy's first shot is a good startign point for the
NetBSD project.
