The dynamic mathematics software Geonext establishes new ways of teaching and
learning mathematics. It offers opportunities of visualisation that can't be
realised on paper or blackboard and with traditional construction tools.
Geonext enables autonomous and cooperative learning of mathematics in the
classroom. It encourages an active discovering approach to mathematical
thinking. Geonext can be used at school and at home for free (GPL).
Therefore the software can be handed out to students without any copyright
problems (GPL).
Geonext can be used from elementary school up to calculus at high school and
in teacher-training at university in a manifold and flexible way.

math/geonext: Mark DEPRECATED
- Last upstream release was in 2014
- Current WWW redirects to a cloud based application
- Set EXPIRATION_DATE 2023-12-05

Move more WWW entries from pkg-descr files into Makefiles
The WWW: lines in the pkg-descr files of these ports where not at the
end of those files and have been missed in prior conversion runs.

Clean up after java/openjdk6 and java/openjdk6-jre removal
java/openjdk6 support was removed from Mk/bsd.java.mk (r512662) and
java/openjdk6 and java/openjdk6-jre were removed from the ports tree
(r512663). Now this patch completely removes remaining stuff from the
ports tree.

The output of tools like awk, date, sort, tr,... depends on the current
locale set by the user. Add LANG=C and LC_ALL=C at the beginning of
bsd.port.mk and export them so all commands are executed with the C locale.
LC_ALL=C overrides all other LC_* variables. LANG is used by setlocale(3)
as default value for LC_* variables, so normally it isn't used when LC_ALL
is set, but there's code out there that looks at LANG directly so it's safer
to set it as well. The only commands not captured by this are !=
assignments before any inclusion of bsd.port.*mk.
Introduce USE_LOCALE=<locale> that adds LANG=<locale> and LC_ALL=<locale> to
CONFIGURE_ENV and MAKE_ENV so upstream build systems can be executed with a
different locale (e.g. USE_LOCALE=en_US.UTF-8).

Now that the Java 1.3 and Java 1.4 ports are deprecated and will expire soon,
remove support for them from bsd.java.mk. As Jikes is not available in Java 1.5
or higher, remove it from bsd.java.mk too (suggested by hq@) and from the ports
which used it (only occurences were USE_JIKES=no). Support for the Blackdown VM
is also removed, as it is not available in Java 1.5 and higher.
Also remove the mapping from Java 1.1-1.4 to Java 1.5+ in bsd.java.mk to detect
old, broken ports; therefore bump the minimal value of JAVA_VERSION to 1.5.
While here, replace static values of JAVA_VERSION in files/*.in by
%%JAVA_VERSION%% .
