Subject: [gentoo-dev] new package category: net-vpn
Date: Fri, 17 Mar 2017 00:02:45 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <CAHmME9o3F3e4euGzj1JdPczu=bq8=5WTJWRYBTThRXjLkMAffg@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

Hey folks,

While VPNs weren't stylish back when most categories were added to our
portage tree, they now are hot potatoes. Most VPN-related programs
currently live in net-misc, which isn't quite right.

If nobody voices reasonable objections, I plan on adding a net-vpn
category soon and moving relevant packages into it.

Thanks,
Jason
