Everything looks reasonable!

When you revise the port, you might consider pregenerating the manpage and
storing it and installing it from the "files" directory.

okay.

okay.

LICENSE is optional anyway.  However, if you want to see an example of PD
license implemented, you can follow the example in textproc/words port.

It's because PD isn't a defined license most likely.




I'm moving this to the patch-ready pool.
