2.14 24 Oct 2011 09:11:38	dougb	The vast majority of pkg-descr files had the following format when they had both lines: Author: ... WWW: .... So standardize on that, and move them to the end of the file when necessary. Also fix some more whitespace, and remove more "signature tags" of varying forms, like -- name, etc. s/AUTHOR/Author/ A few other various formatting issues
2.14 09 Oct 2011 01:48:11	dougb	For ports that have an EXPIRATION_DATE which has already passed, but that have other ports that depend on them, mark the ports that depend on them DEPRECATED, and make all EXPIRATION_DATEs 2011-10-31.
