I just wanted to express my general concerns, since in past I was also making posts in the tone of the OP, and I wanted people to speak up so badly, I decided not to remain silent this time, even if the original problem is not really on my playground. I would also like to see portmgr actively participating in the discussions, leading by example and well, basically, leading and managing. If portmgr cant react on high number of port related PR's and the time it takes to handle them, ports quality, license framework, then... what actually portmgr can do and what's its point? I am aware we're all volunteers, but at the end, we've volunteered to certain duties, as maintainers, commiters and portmgr's, havent we? Even more, few people volunteered on multiple discussions in past, that they'd love to help with certain duties, and, well, they've been ignored. That really makes me wonder if anyone is actually in charge, has ideas, power and will to implement those, 'right' to make decisions, or are we just drifting in random directions depending on who takes what action and who does (or not) replies to stop them or not?
