[ft-devel] out-dated text on freetype "developer" page

The "developer" page on the freetype website says this:

"If you are behind a Firewall which disables port 9418, you might try the 
slower HTTP protocol:
    git clone http://git.sv.nongnu.org/r/freetype/freetype2.git
    git clone http://git.sv.nongnu.org/r/freetype/freetype2-demos.git";

[ http://www.freetype.org/developer.html#anongit ]

... however, I don't think it's true anymore that using http: is
"slower" -- savannah now supports the git "smart http" protocol (which I
guess just channels the ordinary git-protocol over an http channel),
which is basically the same speed as "git:".

So I'd recommend removing the word "slower" from that description.

Thanks,

-Miles
