When new versions are available you just need to update the PORTVERSION, run make makesum, and submit a PR to get the updated port committed. Being a boxbackup user will allow you to work with feedback better, but it's not a requirement to be a user of the port to maintain it. https://www.freebsd.org/doc/en/books/porters-handbook/ has all of the information you need. If you ever have questions ports@ or #bsdports on EFNet IRC can help. Maybe you could give it a try? Given the last release was a few years ago it is likely not going to require much attention. It's just that if I re-add it without a maintainer someone else will come along and remove it again. It's our policy to have someone adopt the port to help the workload. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
