Dear 'ports',


I have written a small port for FreeBSD. It is a driver for LCD/VFD displays 
based on the  HD44780 chip. Since
lcdproc seems te be causing trouble on 5.2-Current (30th of June). I would 
like to contribute it to the portstree.
I also have some questions related to this before submitting:

- Wat kind of e-mail address can I use best for this port?
- Will I get lots of spam on the address? Any chance to get a cool FreeBSD 
e-mail adres :-)

What do you recommend for hosting the file?

Regards,

    Gert van der Plas
