Removal of www/apache22

[Bernard Spil]

Hi All,

You are all maintainer of a port that depends on www/apache22. The
Apache 2.2 port has been marked EXPIRED for almost a year. I was about
to delete it but didn't want to go ahead without informing you. My
analysis of the dependent ports can be found in the FreeBSD wiki
https://wiki.freebsd.org/Apache#Apache_2.2

If the port cannot be updated to work with Apache 2.4 it will be
removed together with www/apache22. Let me and apache@ know if you can
update the port to use 2.4 or if there's a different port we should be
pointing to in MOVED.

Thank you for your cooperation!

With kind regards, Bernard Spil (with hat apache@)
