I haven't heard back from the maintainer of sox yet on the requested bump
to sox 14.3.0. I didn't find any process outlined in the handbook or the
porters handbook, and I would have searched the archives but the search
index hasn't been rebuilt since 2007.
Regarding ports that are maintained, there is generally a 2 week timeout with
PRs regarding port upgrades (which is noted in the handbook), assuming a
patch is provided. The most likely delay with your situation is that you did
not support a patch to actually perform the update - simply the request.
Upgrading ports that has other maintainers is time consuming to begin with -
even moreso when you do not provide a patch to aide in the process.
I searched the archives via google with no real results on any process on
how to poke the maintainer to life.
You CC'd the maintainer. That is sufficient.
Awesome, thanks Glen. I didn't see the 2 week timeout in the handbook,
must have missed it. I'll work on learning how to build the package so I
can submit a diff rather than a request.
