>Description:
www/spreadlogd is marked to be removed on 2014-05-01.
It's reason for removal is based upon the fact that
it's currently listed dependency upon net/spread
source (http://www.edu-linux.org/down/spread-src-3.17.4.tar.gz)
no longer exists.
I was able to retrieve the source from it's original
location: www.spread.org, and would be willing to
maintain a reliable link. To insure this port, as well
as the port net/spread continue to build, and work
as intended.

This is an attempt to take over maintainership of this
port to insure it's continued availability to those
who choose to use it.

>How-To-Repeat:
Attempt to build this port in it's current condition.
>Fix:
Allow me to maintain this port.

Attachments of requisite patch(1)es
will soon follow...
