Why to accept this changes, without informed the maintainer (ehaupt)?

Why to accept this changes, without informed the maintainer (ehaupt)?

I accepted the change as Ben's mentor.

ehaupt: What do you think about marking deskutils/xfce4-notification-daemon as deprecated and then removing it from ports 1 month later? My understanding is that it is no longer maintained and is fully replaced by deskutils/xfce4-notifyd?

It is also worth noting that deskutils/xfce4-notification-daemon is already marked deprecated due to USE_XFCE=libgui:
https://svnweb.freebsd.org/ports/head/Mk/Uses/xfce.mk?revision=411970&view=markup#l101

@woodsb02 Please use the SUMMARY field as the proposed commit log (i've updated it this time to provide example).

Besides ensuring all relevant context is included at review time without having to hunt in comments or elsewhere, it also ensures this context is included in the commit log message itself (as it should), and makes approval requirements and other commit log metadata (and your understanding of it) explicit.

Please also include test results in the test plan section, not just a description/list of what will/has been run

At this point deprecating the port makes sense. As maintainer I approve this change.
