Normally you would become active in the ports project, submitting ports and patches, etc. Then after some unspecified amount of time (hopefully) an existing committer will nominate you for a 'commit bit', portmgr@ has to approve that. You then you work as a committer, but with a mentor approving your work, eventually ending up committing things by yourself. I've also been advised that joining #bsdports on EFnet and making yourself known will help!
