Twitter::API provides an interface to the Twitter REST API for perl.
Features:
* full support for all Twitter REST API endpoints
* not dependent on a new distribution for new endpoint support
* optionally specify access tokens per API call
* error handling via an exception object that captures the full
request/response context
* full support for OAuth handshake and Xauth authentication
Additional features are available via optional traits:
* convenient methods for API endpoints with simplified argument
handling via ApiMethods
* normalized booleans (Twitter likes 'true' and 'false', except
when it doesn't) via NormalizeBooleans
* automatic decoding of HTML entities via DecodeHtmlEntities
* automatic retry on transient errors via RetryOnError
* "the whole enchilada" combines all the above traits via Enchilada
* app-only (OAuth2) support via AppAuth
* automatic rate limiting via RateLimiting
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.
