	I'm not in favor of getting this project buried underneath the ''Handbook'', for all the reasons Dave listed. I get pretty frustrated every time I try digging information out of the ''Handbook''; so while I don't mind incorporating some of the stuff from it piecemeal, I am very very very much not in favor of dumping it here ''en masse''. --[[User:Jimbo\|Jimbo]] 00:40, 18 Sep 2004 (GMT)		I'm not in favor of getting this project buried underneath the ''Handbook'', for all the reasons Dave listed.

−	~~==Is There No Thing Called Free Speach?==~~
−	~~So is "from source" not welcome here? What is the point of me writing articles, only for you to just change the whole lot?~~

−	[[Installing_Apache_with_PHP]] was a "from source" guide, for one simple fact: You know where everything goes, and you can then easily query errors. And not like all, some people '''do''' prefer source installs -- which I'd thought I'd give the user a choice!
−
−	~~But it seems this a pkg_add based wiki. Great. What gives?~~
−
−	~~----~~
−	Actually around here we generally prefer the [[ports tree]], which Dave also gave the nod to. Which is also building from source, but has the (rather distinct) advantage of also creating entries in the ports database, as well as making sure that any FreeBSD-centric patches and file location changes get made, you can use portupgrade to update the port later, etc etc etc.
−
−	However I was still interested to see your "from tarballs" approach. It's not something I'd normally recommend on a FreeBSD machine when there is a port for that application, for the reasons mentioned above, but it's nice to see it done a bit. After all every now and then it is possible to run across something you want that there isn't already a port for!
−
−	~~Maybe you could write us an article specifically about building applications from tarballs rather than using the ports tree, and common gotchas and how to fix them?~~
−
−	PS: the talk page for your article is really a better place for this kinda thing, I had already asked you a leading question about some of this stuff there. =) --[[User:Jimbo\|Jimbo]] 10:02, 29 March 2006 (EST)
