Why is amarok gone from FreeBSD?

I'm just curious about this. Why was it removed? freshports says

Code: 
Deprecated DEPRECATED: No longer actively maintained upstream.
Expired This port expired on: 2023-03-31
Ignore IGNORE: cannot install: does not work with MySQL version 80 (MySQL 80 not supported)

However, this is for version 2.9.71. However it appears that amarok has had four releases in 2025 alone:

Code: 
[HEADING=3]August 9, 2025: Amarok 3.3.1 released[/HEADING]
[HEADING=3]July 8, 2025: Amarok 3.3 released[/HEADING]
[HEADING=3]February 15, 2025: Amarok 3.2.2 released[/HEADING]
[HEADING=3]January 11, 2025: Amarok 3.2.1 released[/HEADING]

With at least 5 releases in 2024...Which seems pretty far from "no longer actively maintained upstream."

Is there a way to get the more modern version added back in to FreeBSD?
