When you think about software built for automated writing assistance, a
lot of assumptions probably come to mind. You have heard terms like
cloud-based, artificial intelligence, and machine learning. You have
been promised sophisticated, human-like feedback to dramatically
improve your writing.
Vale is none of that; it was not designed to be, and it does not try to be.
To put it succinctly, Vale does not teach you how to write, it is a tool for
writers.
This distinction is particularly important to understand because Vale
does not offer any of its own advice. Instead, it offers a framework for
creating and enforcing custom rules. Its approach is much more similar
to code linters than it is to traditional grammar checkers.
Remove WWW entries moved into port Makefiles
Commit b7f05445c00f has added WWW entries to port Makefiles based on
WWW: lines in pkg-descr files.
This commit removes the WWW: lines of moved-over URLs from these
pkg-descr files.

Add WWW entries to port Makefiles
It has been common practice to have one or more URLs at the end of the
ports' pkg-descr files, one per line and prefixed with "WWW:". These
URLs should point at a project website or other relevant resources.
Access to these URLs required processing of the pkg-descr files, and
they have often become stale over time. If more than one such URL was
present in a pkg-descr file, only the first one was tarnsfered into
the port INDEX, but for many ports only the last line did contain the
port specific URL to further information.
There have been several proposals to make a project URL available as
a macro in the ports' Makefiles, over time.
