does this mean FreeBSD is not advised to use Apache and Lynx? I have found other http server packages I have never seen before in the distribution, they are worthlesss, but were included, so it's very strange. the FreeBSD release engineer must made mistakes, Apache and Lynx should be included, they should throw those garbage packages away, but I don't know why.
