View and use other desktops
Connections allows you to connect to and use other desktops. This can be a great
way to access content or software on a different desktop operating system. It
can also be used as a way to provide support to users who might need help.
A range of different operating systems can be connected to, including Linux and
Windows desktops. You can also connect to virtual machines.
Connections uses the widely supported VNC and RDP protocols, and one of these
must be enabled on the desktop that you want to connect to.

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.
