Description:
The libevent API provides a mechanism to execute a callback function when a specific event occurs on a file descriptor or after a timeout has been reached. Furthermore, libevent also support callbacks due to signals or regular timeouts. libevent is meant to replace the event loop found in event driven network servers. An application just needs to call event_dispatch() and then add or remove events dynamically without having to change the event loop. Currently, libevent supports /dev/poll, kqueue(2), event ports, select(2), poll(2) and epoll(4). The internal event mechanism is completely independent of the exposed event API, and a simple update of libevent can provide new functionality without having to redesign the applications. As a result, Libevent allows for portable application development and provides the most scalable event notification mechanism available on an operating system. Libevent can also be used for multi-threaded applications.

security/mbedtls: Move to security/mbedtls2

The port has expired but isn't removed yet because there are still too
many consumers.  Rename it because the name "security/mbedtls" makes it
look like it's the default version.

devel/libevent-devel: fix MASTER_SITES, assume maintainership

The latter is of technical nature to reduce the tension on the
lists.  Feel free to reclaim if you believe you're in a better
position to take care of this library.

devel/libevent-devel: new port had been copied from `devel/libevent'

Current stable release is nearly three years old and lacks a number
of new features and performance improvements.

A fortnight ago, upstream had tagged pre-release 2.2.1-alpha, which
this port offers to early adopters.
