Get notified when packages are built

A new feature has been added. FreshPorts already tracks package built by the FreeBSD project. This information is displayed on each port page. You can now get an email when FreshPorts notices a new package is available for something on one of your watch lists. However, you must opt into that. Click on Report Subscriptions on the right, and New Package Notification box, and click on Update.

Finally, under Watch Lists, click on ABI Package Subscriptions to select your ABI (e.g. FreeBSD:14:amd64) & package set (latest/quarterly) combination for a given watch list. This is what FreshPorts will look for.

Description:
powwow is a client program, which replaces telnet for the lazy mudder who wants some (only some?) extra features. It is primarily designed for DikuMUDs, but nothing prevents its use for other types of muds. powwow is based on another client, cancan, and cancan was originally inspired by tintin (yet another client) by Peter Unold (pjunold@daimi.aau.dk), but is entirely re-written. powwow also implements the MUME remote editing protocol, which enables you to edit texts on the mud using your own favourite editor, several texts at once if you have a windowing terminal.

games/powwow: Update MAINTAINER

Current MAINTAINER address is a @subdomain.freebsd.org who's MX has been
delegated to the recipient (current MAINTAINER).

This causes issues because Bugzilla's authentication scheme has a specific
Kerberos (kpasswd) based backend for accounts matching the FreeBSD.org
domain.

This coupled with the MAINTAINER not having access to the current
MAINTAINER address, and using a different Bugzilla account email address,
has implications and causes issues with respect to verifying maintainership
for approval and other purposes (requesting feedback etc).

tl;dr: All maintainers (MAINTAINER lines) for maintainers of ports, should
