I noticed that on /Sun Aug 8 08:46:23 2010 UTC /this port just
disappeared with cvs message by beat:
Remove expired port www/mplayer-plugin: Upstream support dropped. Please
consider using www/gecko-mediaplayer instead.

Could you please add the notice in /usr/ports/UPDATING saying just the
same as cvs checkin message does?
UPDATING file is the place where all people updating the ports look
where they notice the disappeared port.

Thank you,
Yuri

This is noted in MOVED, which is the correct place for such things.
