Doug Barton 2fadfa2cfb For ports maintained by ports@FreeBSD.org, remove names and/or
e-mail addresses from the pkg-descr file that could reasonably
be mistaken for maintainer contact information in order to avoid
confusion on the part of users looking for support. As a pleasant
side effect this also avoids confusion and/or frustration for people
who are no longer maintaining those ports.

EPP is the Extensible Provisioning Protocol. EPP (defined in RFC 3730) is
an application layer client-server protocol for the provisioning and
management of objects stored in a shared central repository. Specified in
XML, the protocol defines generic object management operations and an
extensible framework that maps protocol operations to objects. As of
writing, its only well-developed application is the provisioning of
Internet domain names, hosts, and related contact details.
RFC 3734 defines a TCP based transport model for EPP, and this module
implements a proxy server for this model. You can use it to construct a
daemon that maintains a single connection to the EPP server that can be
used by many local clients, thereby reducing the overhead for each
transaction.
Net::EPP::Proxy is based on the Net::Server framework and
Net::EPP::Client, which it uses to communicate with the server.
