My server (@gldis.ca) has been offline since December 3 as I'm switching
providers. I didn't bother submitting a pr to change the maintainer address
because I hope to get my server back online by this time next week.

Azureus *will not* be upgraded to 2.2.0.0 until there is a native JDK 1.5 in the
ports tree. Azureus 2.2.0.0 makes extensive use of the nio layer which is buggy
in 1.4 and appears as a memory leak when running Azureus. I've ran 2.2.0.0 until
its memory foot print was 250MB and my system started to swap like it had
nothing better to do.

Thank you for bringing the WWW reference to my attention.
