Find a port that needs a maintainer and take over it or find a program not in 
ports and bring it in.

There are many ports that need people to maintain them.  Subscribe to the 
ports mailing list and you'll see occasional posts about ports which are 
unmaintained and broken.

It's not very hard... do that and be familiar with the porter's handbook and 
you'll find something in no time.
