Help getting updates to java-commapi & java-commapi-freebsd ports committed

[Ari Suutari]

Hi,

It looks that Oracle is now longer providing download for java communications
api 2.0.3. There is v. 3.0, but as far as I can remember it is not possible to
use it on non-sun platforms like FreeBSD.

Maybe it would be best to retire these ports, as there are working alternatives
like purejavacomm (or even rxtx) today.
