Hi,

Please go ahead and take over maintainership of leafnode.  As you suggest,
you're a more appropriate maintainer, and I have too little time these days
to look after it properly.

Thanks for your patience.

Don't _EVER_ lose your sense of humour !

>
> This PR makes three ADDITIONAL changes over PR #44407.
> 1. change maintainer
> 2. add another critical bugfix in files/patch-aa
> 3. bump PORTREVISION.
>
> Please keep the PORTREVISION at 1 to hint that this port does not
> install vanilla 1.9.29. The patch will be part of leafnode 1.9.30 which
> will be released once one pending bug report has been resolved.
>
> #44407 already contained the update of leafnode from 1.9.27 to 1.9.29,
> which fixes a persistent SIGSEGV as upstream NNTP servers offer new
> newsgroups, fixes having multiple upstream servers with the same name
> but different port (for stunnel, for example). These changes are also
> part of this patch.
