Speaking as someone who's applied, and is awaiting a response on whether I'll be allowed to take over an existing port, I'm sure that new committer blood is out here. However, I'm still awaiting a reply. How many people process the commit requests at the moment?

I'm not chasing up, as I've spoken to jmmp on IRC, but it's more of a general observation/query about the system as it stands.

I updated the pike Portfile five days ago, but the ticket hasn't been processed yet. Could you commit the changes for me since I have no commit

I come to the impression that there are too few committers. What do
others think on this? And how many are there currently, anyway?
