You did nothing wrong, it just takes a really long time for new ports
to committed it seems.  I'm still waiting on a 4-week-old submission
that would take about 5 minutes for someone to test.

Whether it's due to apathy or lack of volunteers, I personally find
the long delay very disconcerting and likely to make me think twice
next time I decide to contribute a port.
