1) Mat is correct.  Not only was the PR sitting there for 4 months, the
original submitter pinged it.  OSA should have responded about the
intention of the PR within 2 weeks.  No maintainer has the right to
bitch like this after the 2 week period.  The attitude is certainly not
warranted coming from the culprit.

2) After throwing a fit like this, OSA is pretty much obligated to fix
this correctly immediately (IMO).

3) I don't want to take maintainership, but I would have zero issue with
setting MAINTAINER=ports@.   No listed maintainer is better than keeping
ports hostage.
