Here's a simple one where we just need to fix the livecheck.
ample seems to have been updated (port version: 0.5.7, new version: 0.4.0)
I don't find any tickets, the homepage seems to be current, version 0.5.7 is the latest and was released in 2003. The project is hosted at SourceForge and uses its standard livecheck, which checks the newsfeed. The SourceForge newsfeed has become increasingly unreliable of late and I hate it. :) My new favorite SourceForge livecheck is:
livecheck.type regex
livecheck.url http://sourceforge.net/projects/${name}/files/
livecheck.regex ${name}-(\[0-9.\]+)\\.tar
That fixes this port.

Maybe we should update the default SourceForge livecheck to do this instead of checking the unreliable newsfeed. :/
