Description
I'm attaching a diff that switches portfile from svn rev 17 (current is 273) to 2.0.0 tarball.
I'd capitalize the name of the port too, both 'h' and 'f', like many ports in aqua category do.

Replying to and.damore@…:
Thanks. Committed in r86223 with these changes:
I did not change the name of the port because I do not know how MacPorts would handle a change in case during an upgrade. MacPorts was never designed to handle that, so it might not do it correctly, and it might vary based on whether the filesystem is case-sensitive or not.
Lowercase port names used to be preferred because of a bug in MacPorts base. That was fixed years ago so for new ports uppercase characters can be used where needed. But case-only renames of existing ports are probably best avoided (unless someone wants to do some detailed testing on various systems and prove that it works, ideally writing some tests we can add to MacPorts base). If this is something you're interested in, feel free to bring it up on macports-dev and I'll explain some of the concerns I have.
