As you found out, nudging the lists works. In the future, you can get better response in general by noting that there's a patch included with [PATCH] at the start of the synopsis. Similarly, new ports get quicker treatment if you say New port - ... so that committers know it's a new port just by looking at the synopsis. http://www.mired.org/home/mwm/ Independent WWW/Perforce/FreeBSD/Unix consultant, email for more information.
