developer is officially maintaining the package.
The rationale for changing this from "tech-pkg" to "pkgsrc-users" is
that it implies that any user can try to maintain the package (by
submitting patches to the mailing list). Since the folks most likely
to care about the package are the folks that want to use it or are
already using it, this would leverage the energy of users who aren't
developers.
Convert to options framework.
Prefer package version to internal version of pcre.
Add curses and inet6 options.
New features and changes since tin-1.6.0
Changes
-------
. interactive mailer can now be fed with headers. The old use_mailreader_i
config variable is obsolete and superseded by the new interactive_mailer
variable that can have three values:
0 no interactive mailreader (old use_mailreader_i=OFF)
1 interactive mailreader with headers
2 interactive mailreader without headers (old use_mailreader_i=ON)
New features
------------
. You can now specify a mailbox folder to save your sent mails (fcc=) so
you possibly don't need auto_cc or auto_bcc anymore. See tin(5).
. x_headers can take a command which generates the header(s). See tin(5).
. mime_forward (message/rfc822) attributes option
. single line scrolling in all levels
. minimalistic BiDi support (render_bidi)

and some more.
pkgsrc. Instead, a new variable PKGREVISION is invented that can get
bumped independent of DISTNAME and PKGNAME.
Example #1:
DISTNAME= foo-X.Y
PKGREVISION= Z
=> PKGNAME= foo-X.YnbZ
Example #2:
DISTNAME= barthing-X.Y
PKGNAME= bar-X.Y
PKGREVISION= Z
=> PKGNAME= bar=X.YnbZ (!)
On subsequent changes, only PKGREVISION needs to be bumped, no more risk
of getting DISTNAME changed accidentally.

* right notice, and it must be included in any copy made

to Makefile.
