Well recent OpenBSD policy about web apps is that it should need
some specific patching for OpenBSD to be as a port (or to be very
very popular so it's needed as a port).

If a web app port just unpacks an archive then it doesn't need to
be a port.

Anyway, you can modify Makefile to use GITHUB* variables (see bsd.port.mk),
also change MESSAGE to readme file.

I didn't test the port, when I tried wallabag i decided that it
does not fit 100% to my needs; if it would behave more like Zotero
then I would use it :)

Fair enough. I'll keep maintaining it for myself, as I find it easier to
have a single database of installed software.

Cheers for that, I'll adjust it.

I see what you mean. The main advantage of Wallabag, or other
read-it-later apps is that this let me postpone procrastination to a
later time, and potentially another device. This is not a general
purpose bookmarking system.
