freebsd-ports/lang/scriba/pkg-descr
Doug Barton 2fadfa2cfb For ports maintained by ports@FreeBSD.org, remove names and/or
e-mail addresses from the pkg-descr file that could reasonably
be mistaken for maintainer contact information in order to avoid
confusion on the part of users looking for support. As a pleasant
side effect this also avoids confusion and/or frustration for people
who are no longer maintaining those ports.

ScriptBasic is a scripting implementation of the BASIC language. The
aim of this implementation is to provide a general and widely used
tool for the simple programmer. One of the reason behind the success
of the Microsoft operating systems is VisualBasic, which is built into
many of the applications Microsoft delivers. Why are UNIX and other
non-Microsoft operating system users prohibited to use the simplest
programming language?
ScriptBasic is a BASIC implementation, which aims not less than
becoming the most widely used scripting tool on UNIX systems. It is
portable, it is BASIC, it is a scripting tool and it is GNU LGPL.
