. Upgrade to the latest version.
. Change the port versioning scheme from the seemingly static 1.0

	  to one based on the date (the way author releases it).

. Enable the SSL (https) support by default (unless NO_OPENSSL is set).
. Use Makefile.bsd instead of patching the software's Makefile --

	  the new Makefile.bsd is nearly twice smaller than the old patch-aa.

. Add the author-approved patch-idle, which allows to specify the

	  timeout at run-time (on command line), instead of at compile-time.
