Hi. This is probably not the message you were expecting. ;-) While I know most all the committers with any tenure. It's my understanding that doing this directly "shopping for a committer" is strictly frowned upon. So please consider this my CV for application as a ports committer. I've been w/FreeBSD as long as it's existed, and a ports maintainer for currently some 160 ports. I've been a maintainer for more than 6yrs now. I had an experience today I found very rewarding -- guiding a newcomer to the creation of their first port [#255496]. As a rule; I'm always "tackling problems". But this was a different experience. Which got me to thinking that this is something I'm really comfortable with, and something I could really enjoy. If given the chance. I'm fairly candid, as many of you know. But none-the-less have pretty good communication skills. tl;dr; I'd like to join the ports team. Please accept my application. :-) --Chris
