Is there anything > that I could do to accelerate this process? Yes, there is. You can go through each port, verifying that it is 'up to standards' (see the handbook), and mail in a gnats followup saying that you've done so and it is OK (or suggesting changes to the port to make it OK). This makes it much easier for the committer, as he can feel much more confident of his own review. Remember to check for a later version of the port existing in the GNATS queue. > Or does a committer just need to go though and take care of this? Really: Yes, but almost all of us feel better about committing something that have had more people review it. Eivind.
