 > livecheck doesn't work, with the URL scheme not sure how you'd be able
 to get it working. Maybe disable livecheck?
 Is this on by default?
 Normally Globus releases this as part of their Globus Toolkit bundle. So
 we would have to track Globus Toolkit releases. I'm not sure how to do
 this. Otherwise, how do I disable livecheck?

 > The home page looks like it hasn't been updated since 2004, is there
 another homepage that can be used as it doesn't contain information about
 the version this port provides?
 Evidently, the GPT software has been adopted by Globus and integrated into
 their Globus Toolkit releases. I think the reference to the original
 developers is becoming less and less relevant, even if the documentation
 still points to them and they still have some claim of copyright. But the
 latest stable release (3.2) of NCSA doesn't look anything like what's
 currently in Globus Toolkit. So maybe the homepage should be updated.
