Ports are not really linked to a version of FreeBSD, I cannot find Jove<br>
on a 13.3 machine I have either.<br>
<br>
It may be because there was no active maintener anymore, I see that jove<br>
is maintained by <a href="mailto:ports@freebsd.org" target="_blank">ports@freebsd.org</a>, so no specific person in charge.<br>
<br>
