It's adding a new port. You need a person's permission to list them as the maintainer of a port. And as always, be sure to check that a new port works right before you add it. The new python version is broadly backward-compatible, but there are incompatible changes including new keywords. (See py36-readline for a an example where just adding a '36' to the portfile didn't result in a working port.) - Josh
