OK. done. I've reset the maintainer of dvdauthor and kino, so that these two are up for grabs. There was an independent request by C. P. Ghost (cc'ed) to upgrade this dvdauthor port to a newer version. I have no interest to handle the actual ports upgrade, is either of you willing to take it? Someone else? Documentation about port upgrades is at http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/porters-handbook/ and we're happy to help new port maintainers answering questions and giving advice. Thanks, Matthias
