No, it was Daniel Lin <linpct@gmail.com> that set up there. He has contacted me and asked me for approve to copy all of MATE from Marcuscom CVS as he liked my port better than his. My current repository is at http://www.marcuscom.com:8080/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi/ports-experimental/ and I plan to copy over to my github account. > 2.

Do it in github is probably best thing to do since it's public. You can even add people in your list to allow them commit and etc. Add kwm@ in CC to see if it's okay with him about github too. > 3. To where should I/we send the anti-WANT_GNOME patches? Should these go > to freebsd-gnome@FreeBSD.org or marcuscom-devel@marcuscom.com? See my #2 answer. Addition here, when it's done then submit a PR with link of patch for portmgr to test it in the pointyhat-exp before one of us commit it. > 4.

I don't know much about Wiki stuff, but I think you should be able to click on 'Create new empty page' or something like that if I remember it correct?
