Cyrus-sasl version 1.5.28 is deprecated per the developer's website - 
<http://asg.web.cmu.edu/cyrus/download/>.  Furthermore the port is no 
longer maintained.  The 2. branch of the cyrus-sasl tree is being actively 
developed and the port is maintained by ume at freebsd.org.

I suggest that this port be dropped.

ACID is no longer being updated by its author - 
<http://www.andrew.cmu.edu/user/rdanyliw/snort/snortacid.html> (last update 
was Jan, 2003), and it has been superceded by BASE (security/base/) which 
is based on the ACID codebase and is being actively developed.  Furthermore 
ACID no longer has a port maintainer.

I suggest that this port be dropped.
