>Description:


Dear maintainer,

Your port, devel/py-clientcookie, has been deprecated by its author. It has
been rolled into www/py-mechanize and no further seperate releases of
py-clientcookie are expected.  Would it be okay for me to DEPRECATE and add
an EXPIRATION_DATE to your port?  If you would like, I can make you the
maintainer of py-mechanize.  It was owned by ports@ until my last commit
where I set the maitainer to python@.  No one should have a problem with the
port having a dedicated maintainer.  Thanks.

Ref: http://wwwsearch.sourceforge.net/ClientCookie/
"This module is now part of mechanize. I don't intend to make further
standalone releases of ClientCookie."

Note to self: py-htmltestcase (ports@) is the only py-clientcookie consumer.
The project's home page is gone and distfiles are no longer fetchable from it.
Appears to be a dead project with no new releases in 1.5 years.
