  Last time I checked, the maintainer/author didn't respond.
  
  Also, I mirrored the distfiles so they wouldn't disappear from the 'net.
  IIRC, I had to dig them up off some obscure FTP mirrors.  If the ports
  have security problems or are generally not useful anymore then disabling
  or deleting them would be fine, otherwise I continue to recommend setting
  the maintainer to ports at FreeBSD.org.  (However, I can take maintainership
  if that would be better.)
