Maybe now is an excellent time to learn how to make a port.
Assuming flexbb is similar to punbb, you can start by copying
www/punbb to www/flexbb and modifying the PORTNAME and MASTER_SITES
variables.

The FreeBSD porters handbook is a valuable resource:
http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/porters-handbook/

Also, most files in /usr/ports/Mk/ have helpful comments.

And if you have any questions or run into problems you can of course
always ask for help.
