This has been discussed before.
Google code is dead, all the software in it is either abandonware or has
been migrated somewhere else.
The ports tree is not the place to keep all the old things from the past.
The ports using google code as an upstream have been marked BROKEN long
enough for people with interest in them to fix them, the remaining ports
most certainly interest nobody. And if people are interested in them,
they can always track where their new upstream went.
