--- Comment #2 from Alexey Dokuchaev <danfe at FreeBSD.org> ---
Looks like things had changed a bit over time:

1) The latest version is 7.5 now
2) Distfiles are no longer available from SF.net (for any version)
3) zenXml is now at version 2.3
4) The port does not build :-(

FWIW, we generally do not welcome upper/mixed-cased port names (with a few
notable exceptions like Perl and Python modules); it should've been done this
way (for the new versions), port directory: `sysutils/freefilesync', Makefile:

> PORTNAME=       freefilesync
> PORTVERSION=    7.5
> CATEGORIES=     sysutils
> MASTER_SITES=   http://www.mediafire.com/download/5qlb1c8ltns7obk/:ffs \
>                 SF/zenxml:xml
> DISTFILES=      FreeFileSync_${PORTVERSION}_Source.zip:ffs zenXml_2.3.zip:xml
> ...

Nonetheless, it looks like a nice port to have, so if you're still interested
in porting, please attach a new file with the above concerns addressed.
