portmgr is intending to remove all occurrences of 'Created by' from the tree
by the end of this quarter [1].
This is done to honor those that are actively maintaining the ports tree and
not those that were there before it was cool.
The ports tree is the product of all the contributors and committers
maintaining it currently. If you want your name reflected as contributor, then
MAINTAINER is what you need to be. No information is lost, as the original
creators are still present in the version control system.

have you also considered another direction? That you do not delete this
line, but if several people were involved in the creation, to include
them? One must not insert completely name and email address, but only
the name.
I do not find so beautiful, if this line is deleted. You could also
always see that many people who are no longer active have created many
of these ports in the past, such as Martin "Miwi" Wilke.
Furthermore I think it would be good that portmgr thinks about how many
ports one person should take care of.
Cheers
