Especially since "update ports" means "commit to ports" and Fonz doesn't 
have commit privileges.  It wasn't even directed at maintainers 
(although I would say that maintainers that don't test their updates 
aren't doing good work and relying on a committer to catch obvious 
mistakes).

I like Fonz a lot but that is pure drama queen stuff right there.

"Check your work, please".  "I quit".  Ok.
