Hi, I need to rename the FreeBSD port name too because right now we've got: - net/bird : bird 1.X branch - net/bird-devel: bird 2.X branch
Do you have an idea for the most appropriate port name ? - net/bird1 and net/bird2 - Or net/bird-legacy (for 1.X branch) and net/bird (for 2.X branch) - Or other idea ?
I suggest this way: 1) rename bird -> bird-legacy and bird-devel -> bird2 2) keep this for quite a long time to let users manually change from bird-legacy to bird2 (one whole release cycle?) and not force them into upgrade 3) rename bird2 -> bird 4) drop bird-legacy when we stop supporting it
As a point of reference, we went with bird1/bird2 in openwrt: https://github.com/openwrt-routing/packages/pull/378 -Toke
