+	  <p><strong>Technical contact</strong>: <a
+	    href="mailto:brooks@FreeBSD.org">Brooks Davis</a></p>
+	  <p>When bootstrapping systems it would be useful to be able to
+	    create a single package file that contains on or more packages
+	    and all the required dependent packages.  This is conceptually
+	    similar to, but different from PC-BSD's PBI package format.
+	    PBI's contain a private copy of all dependencies, fat packages
+	    would contain each individual package and once installed it would
+	    be as though each package was individually installed in the usual
+	    manner.</p>
+	  <p>This project would consist of additions to the pkg_tools
+	    to support creation and installation of a new package file format
+	    and to ports to build these packages.</p>
+	  <p><strong>Requirements</strong>:</p>
+          <ul>
+	    <li>Strong knowledge of C code.</li>
+	    <li>A basic understanding of the inner workings of the ports tree.</li>
