The news feed page[s] were not laid out well. Two pages, disjointed information, hard to figure out how to use the optional parameters...

Thankfully, someone told me.

Description:
Fennel is a programming language that brings together the speed, simplicity, and reach of Lua with the flexibility of a lisp syntax and macro system. - Full Lua compatibility: Easily call any Lua function or library from Fennel and vice-versa. - Zero overhead: Compiled code should be just as or more efficient than hand-written Lua. - Compile-time macros: Ship compiled code with no runtime dependency on Fennel. - Embeddable: Fennel is a one-file library as well as an executable. Embed it in other programs to support runtime extensibility and interactive development. Anywhere you can run Lua code, you can run Fennel code.

lang/fennel: Update to 1.4.2 and fix test

Fix one test that was failing because it could only find lua executables
with a version in the filename if it was in the form luax.y (e.g.,
lua5.4), but not luaxy (e.g., lua54) as we have.

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.

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.
