No thanks.
I wrote I don't use seyon, someone deleted that bit !

I also dont use epdfview.

I just tried both & offered distfiles freebsd.org reported needed.
Sorry, but not interested to test newer versions of ports I dont use.

Yes, that's the name I recalled but didnt find.

That is no incentive for me to become a maintainer as I do not use them.

Not my problem,  I provided distfiles & will delete them again.
Someone who uses those 2 ports should host them & optionaly be
MAINTAINER=, That Is Not Me.

(PS I am Maintainer of some ports, more planned, but Not ports I dont use.)

Cheers,
