Why should it?  It was the date you defined.
Rene is right to assume that the port maintainer isn't intending to
delete the port in a timely fashion because it almost never happens.
Your desire to delete the port yourself on the expiration date is
exceptional.

You are misrepresenting me.  I follow the rules, but they are crappy
rules so I'm complaining about them.  Rene did not break any rules that
I am aware of.  (You conveniently did not show me where this "rule" is
documented, nor why you think port maintenance privilege extends past
the expire deadline).

To iterate: Nobody has broken any rules.  What "rule" did Rene or I
break?  To whom are you referring?

what does #2 have to do with anything?  That is total random.

I assume any active portmgr@ will see this thread.  I don't need to
rehash it, not do I need to start simultaneous issues with them (I have
one pending already).

Hint: If you don't respond, I'll stop responding too.  :)
