Have you received any other email about the new port?

Haven't thought about that, but yes, usually two ports are used, one to
track the development branch of an app and the other for releases.
Given how much I have bothered you, I should contribute, and would be happy
to do so, but I am sorry at this moment in life I have so little time left
that I would be of no help.
Not to mention I would have to get the skills required to build the port,
since I have little experience in FreeBSD and none in making a port.
