All,
apache@ has been working diligently for the last 2yrs to realize
www/apache22 as the default. Now, we are at last nearing completion. We
look to pull the switch within the next month or so pending our final
-exp run by portmgr at .
I would like to thank everyone that helped to make this happen
especially:
ohauer@ (Olli Hauer)
for stepping up and finishing the last mile!
portmgr@ (Pav)
-exp runs
clement@ (Clement Laforte)
for his long years of previous service
Once www/apache22 becomes the default, we will actively move to
deprecate and remove support for www/apache20 and related ports (they
already have the notices in them). Then www/apache13* (yes, its EOL
upstream, and unsupported by both then and us).
http://s.apache.org/13eol
Finally, we will look to import www/apache24 which just recently saw its
1st ever BETA release.

Some things you should keep in mind as quoted in ports/CHANGES:
20090516:
AUTHOR: pgollucci at FreeBSD.org
* APACHE_COMPAT is dead!
* USE_APACHE=yes is dead!
* WITH_APACHE13, WITH_APACHE2, WITH_APACHE20, and WITH_APACHE22 are
dead
You should set USE_APACHE=13|20|22+. WITH_APACHE option can
be used to conditionally include support for ANY version of
Apache based on APACHE_PORT.
Additionally, WITH_MODPERL2 will be replaced WITH_MODPERL.
