++ 26/03/03 16:47 +1030 - Tim Aslat:
| What is the procedure for taking maintainership of an inactive port?

Send a PR with a patch + include changing the MAINTAINER line to you.
If the port is currently maintained by ports@FreeBSD.org, someone will
commit the update and change you to the maintainer.

If there's actually an inactive maintainer listed, you should Cc: them
in the PR.  They'll either respond saying "ok, Tim can have maintainership"
or in 2 weeks it'll be a maintainer timeout and somebody will be able to
commit it.
