Offllist. Re: ports/163933: Update security/zenmap to same vers as nmap

Yes, okay, but I am trying to encourage the submitters to take over the ports they have interest in..

Maybe this is selfish, if I commit a patch to an unowned port, I don't have any one to blame.....

And fix it.

Don't we want to get interested maintainers?

Well, only if they are broken and/or unfetchable and/or the upstream
development has stopped.  Simply being unmaintained, although a drawback,
isn't grounds for removal by itself.
