I have looked but I can't seem to find a link to them nor a description of who I would contact concerning this. I have read the following from the porter's handbook ( http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/porters-handbook/keeping-up.html ) "If you wish to use FreshPorts, all you need is an account. If your registered email address is @FreeBSD.org, you will see the opt-in link on the right hand side of the webpages. For those of you who already have a FreshPorts account, but are not using your @FreeBSD.org email address, just change your email to @FreeBSD.org, subscribe, then change it back again." This seems to imply that 1) I need an @freebsd.org email address to fully utilize the site 2) I should be able to get an @freebsd.org email address for being a port maintainer. My implications could be wrong so if anyone could point me in the right direction here (for clarification or who I should contact) it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance, -Kevin B
