Anthony,

  The committers do know about this and are careful about it.  You will
note
that this is discussed more fully here:

http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/articles/contributing/contrib-
how.html

under the section:

New Code or Major Value-Added Packages

I am very surprised that you missed this.  Could it be made any more
obvious?

Ted
