Perhaps a line could be added to the Crux handbook explaining that although the contrib ports are disabled by default, they can be easily enabled my renaming /etc/ports/contrib.rsync.inactive to /etc/ports/contrib.rsync. This could save idiots like me some time - I was crawling the Crux website looking for a good contrib.rsync or contrib.httpup file - not realizing that "disabled" means that there is a perfectly good "disabled" file sitting in /etc/ports/ already. And thanks to the Crux developers for this great 2.3 release. I guess the best compliment I can give is that I find this 2.3 release as good if not better than the previous releases! Thanks Chris
