Funny you should mention this Chris, It's no more than a couple of days ago since -core discussed if we should try to find somebody who would take the unpaid, thankless, and up until now largely undone job of "PR-meister". The job description is to manage the send-pr collection, in a manner that is compatible with the FreeBSD projects ways and means. This includes making sure that the necessary data is available, timing out old PR's and so on and so forth. Previous experience with gnats would be a benefit, but not a requirement, same goes for perl I guess. I guess it would take a couple of hours a week at least. The "compensation package" you will get is the title and the respect you gain in the eyes of your peers.
