Yep and install all binaries as your active user... and have non-traditional cellar based installs...

the binaries don't install as the active user for me... also it's Mac OSX, so I hope you aren't installing on OSX for a production server environment. I use mine as a development environment only so I don't really care much what user it runs under locally.

Also being in Cellar doesn't effect much for me. easy to change prefix on things if they really complain.

Wow, powerful assumptions. Of course I wouldn't use it in a server environment. I just prefer ports. Been using them on bsd for years, just what I like.
