According to this discussion
https://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-ports/2016-July/104165.html I
propose to extend expiration date to 2 or 3 months.

Last version 5.5.38 fixing 15 bugs was released 2016-07-21 (in ports tree from
2016-07-26)
Current expiration is set to 2016-08-20 which I think is short period and
deprecation warning was added just to this version. (OK, few days before but
without portrevision bump nobody have seen it)

5.5.38 will remain in quaterly branch too.

I think it will be better to not remove this wildly used port so fast. It is no
harm to the ports tree to leave it there one month longer.


Please consider longer deprecation warning period for ports like this next
time.
Some ports have expiration 6 months after last upstream release. For example
Ansible.
