Hi xfce@FreeBSD.org
www/midori/Makefile
MAINTAINER=     xfce@FreeBSD.org

Suggestion/Request: Please add ftp.freebsd.org to list of distfiles
& park a copy there, because I just checked on http://midori.org & they
only store latest to download there, no option to download older, which means
our ports 10.0-RELEASE tree is already broken, as release ports/ wants

midori_0.5.6_all_.tar.bz2

& http://www.midori-browser.org/download/source/
only offers tar.bz2  ·  0.5.7  ·  1.1 MB

So all releases of FreeBSD are currently doomed to be obsolete
almost immediately.

PS Yes I'm aware of & make fetches there, but it doesnt solve the
problem of release.

Cheers,
Julian
