Edwin Groothuis 76c4796b2b maintainer-update WWW for cpan from /search?dist=module to /dist/module
portsurvey seems to time out on the old style
	http://search.cpan.org/search?dist=module, so this is a
	good time to convert all my ports to the new
	http://search.cpan.org/dist/module format.

This package contains the URI.pm module with friends. The module
implements the URI class. Objects of this class represent Uniform
Resource Identifier (URI) references as specified in RFC 2396.
URI objects can be used to access and manipulate the various
components that make up these strings. There are also methods to
combine URIs in various ways.
The URI class replaces the URI::URL class that used to be distributed
with libwww-perl. This package contains an emulation of the old
URI::URL interface. The emulated URI::URL implements both the old and
the new interface.
