That seems like a comment on my third paragraph (which you didn't quote), if it was intended as an answer to the quoted paragraph, I may point out that doc/handbook/porting.sgml is the instructions for contributing a port, and line 177 of it is in the middle of an example of a pkg/DESCR file. You don't want to have to keep inserting 'WWW:' into every new port that comes in, do you? :-) Sorry if I didn't make myself clear enough ...
