Hi. This is probably not the message you were expecting. ;-)
While I know most all the committers with any tenure.
It's my understanding that doing this directly "shopping
for a committer" is strictly frowned upon.
So please consider this my CV for application as a ports
committer.
I've been w/FreeBSD as long as it's existed, and a ports
maintainer for currently some 160 ports. I've been a
maintainer for more than 6yrs now. I had an experience
today I found very rewarding -- guiding a newcomer to
the creation of their first port [#255496]. As a rule;
I'm always "tackling problems". But this was a different
experience. Which got me to thinking that this is
something I'm really comfortable with, and something I
could really enjoy. If given the chance. I'm fairly
candid, as many of you know. But none-the-less have
pretty good communication skills.
tl;dr; I'd like to join the ports team. Please accept
my application. :-)
