Hi all,

An argument to remove textproc/p5-Text-Restructured, plus all its
(in)direct dependencies, is that most of the dependencies no longer pass
regress, nor work completely with modern perl. Most of upstream
abandoned the modules anywhere from 6 years to +11 years ago.

While some of the dependencies have had minor updates, the changes don't
allow for most of them to continue passing regression tests with modern
perl.

None of the updates are major, so I could go and update them to their
latest versions, and let them be....however, the top level port,
textproc/p5-Text-Restructured also seems to be abandoned, most likely
due to p5-Safe-World/Hole issues....

Anyway, calling for any users of these ports. While I am the MAINTAINER
of all these, I have no interest in keeping them, though I will update
them to latest versoins if others feel that's best (have diffs ready).

graph: module (current version -> latest version)

textproc/p5-Text-Restructured (0.003040 -> 0.003045)
        devel/p5-Safe-World (0.14, latest)
                devel/p5-Safe-Hole (0.10 -> 0.13)
        devel/p5-Slay-Makefile-Gress (0.06 -> 0.08)
                devel/p5-Slay-Makefile (0.12, latest))
                        devel/p5-Slay-Maker (0.07 -> 0.08)

These have no other uses in the ports tree.

Any takers? Zap? Or opinion to update and drop MAINTAINER (though I'd
prefer to not leave stuff to rot in the tree)?

Thanks,
Okan
