Regarding maintainer, he doesn't maintain his ports (look at portroach if you doubt it) and whenever someone cares to update his ports and send a diff on ports@ he barely never answers (look at ports archive history for confirmation, if this thread is not enough). When I sent my maintainer ping back in May, he replied 16 days later (while it was written he had two weeks, which was already quite much) saying "i havent been very active lately" which I think no one is going to disagree with :) Since he admitted he wasn't active I asked him to reconsider keeping maintainership and he simply stopped answering. I think this kind of behaviour is actually hurtful toward people who actually try to maintain the ports so yeah, please remove him. Cheers, Daniel
