>Description:

Hi,

i would like to mark this port as deprecated and drop maintainership of this port for several reasons:

  - I'm not using it anymore mysqlf
  - There hasn't been a new version since 2003 and the world has changed to
    using Postgresql 8.x and bash3 while this port still relies on bash2 and Postgresql 7.x
  - The port doesn't build with the new gcc 4.2 in -CURRENT (Haven't looked into that for
    lack of time and interest)

If someone wants to take over feel free to do so. The deprecation request is only because I
think personally that this program is at the end of its lifecycle, if the committer of this
feels different then just drop my maintainership please ;)
