It hasn't been removed:

    % ls -la /usr/ports/net/nvnet/
    total 23
    drwxr-xr-x    2 root  wheel    512 Apr 11 12:23 ./
    drwxr-xr-x  727 root  wheel  16384 Apr 19 14:36 ../
    -rw-r--r--    1 root  wheel   1738 Dec 14 10:20 Makefile
    -rw-r--r--    1 root  wheel    224 Mar 18 10:36 distinfo
    -rw-r--r--    1 root  wheel    345 Dec  7 05:34 pkg-descr
    -rw-r--r--    1 root  wheel    483 Dec  7 05:34 pkg-message
    -rw-r--r--    1 root  wheel    310 Apr 11 12:23 pkg-plist

Suggest you install cvsup(1) and use that to update your ports tree.

	Cheers,
