+1. While it could be a good idea to mark those ports as deprecated (in most cases, it's true) but there could be vivid users of those. FWIW, setting expiration date for unbroken and unforbidden ports is not I've seen done in the past. If there's no problem with some port, why remove it only because it's old? May I ask you to back-out EXPIRATION_DATE tags, please?
