Philippe,
You marked the port expired "2013-11-30" which I interpret as "You have
my permission to remove this port after this date".

This is why people are terrified to fix other people's ports, even when
the port is broken and the fix is obvious.  Why do you make a big deal
about garbage collection when you pre-defined the collection date?

For one, I am happy Rene is doing this (mostly) thankless job.
Thank you, Rene.

John
