 PR ports/110535 indicates why Freenet 0.5 has been removed before:
 
 "Delete both net-p2p/freenet and net-p2p/libfreenet from the port  
 tree. Lioux
 long ago dropped maintainership and the the Freenet development team has
 dropped all support for Freenet 0.5 (this port) and has moved to make  
 the 0.5
 network unusable to force 0.7 migration.
 
 Freenet 0.7 is incompatbile with 0.5 and doesn't have stable releases  
 yet
 (hence unable to make a port for it). At some point in the future  
 when it
 settles down I will work this."
 
 I don't think the 0.5 version should be resurrected.
