 * Did you read commit log first?
 * I delete checksum!

Of course I did.

 * The reason is simple: since lynx changed almost everyday,
 * checksum always mismatch.

That's not a valid reason to not have a checksum.  We put up the
latest port and matching distfile on ftp.freebsd.org, without the
checksum it is not possible for the user to determine if the distfile
is correct or not.

Maybe we can even move selected versions to freefall's LOCAL_PORTS
area to make sure people won't pick them up from the original master
site?
