As you may have noticed, l18n is a contraction of i18n and l10n, namely
'internationalisation' and 'localization'. It basically provides lazy
translations for names used for localization purposes (e.g. places and
timezones).
I started writing l18n when I was looking for translations for the pytz library.
Indeed, on a multi-lingual site where users can select the timezone they are in,
it's much better if they can select in their language, as in some cases, the
differences with the english name can be significant, hence the place to look
for it when it's sorted in alphabetical order.
And as I am lazy, I thought of a way to - almost - automatically fetch the
translations from the CLDR (Unicode's Common Locale Data Repository) database.
Integrating function to link timezone to country codes, there was no reason not
to try and provide translations also for the latter. In the near future, I - or
contributors - may also add currencies or measurement units fetched from the
CLDR database ...
NOTE: If this package has multiple flavors (see below), then use one of them instead of the name specified above. NOTE: This is a Python port. Instead of py39-l18n listed in the above command, you can pick from the names under the Packages section.
all: remove explicit versions in USES=python for "3.x+"
The logic in USES=python will automatically convert this to 3.8+ by
itself.
Adjust two ports that only had Python 3.7 mentioned but build fine
on Python 3.8 too.

Remove WWW entries moved into port Makefiles
Commit b7f05445c00f has added WWW entries to port Makefiles based on
WWW: lines in pkg-descr files.
This commit removes the WWW: lines of moved-over URLs from these
pkg-descr files.
Approved by: portmgr (tcberner)
Add WWW entries to port Makefiles
It has been common practice to have one or more URLs at the end of the
ports' pkg-descr files, one per line and prefixed with "WWW:". These
URLs should point at a project website or other relevant resources.
Access to these URLs required processing of the pkg-descr files, and
they have often become stale over time. If more than one such URL was
present in a pkg-descr file, only the first one was tarnsfered into
the port INDEX, but for many ports only the last line did contain the
port specific URL to further information.
There have been several proposals to make a project URL available as
a macro in the ports' Makefiles, over time.
