Greetings, I am the named maintainer of the freebsd port. I have been for approximately twelve years; although I haven't been very active the last four years.
The last major work I put into the freebsd port was at the end of 2009. I have reviewed others' patches since then; but it really hasn't required anything major since David O'Brien and I did foundational work in the early 200Xs (which itself was based on many others' foundations). Gerald Pfeifer has also done much to keep the port in a good shape. (I also don't want to ignore the many patches that came from members of the FreeBSD core team and other FreeBSD users.) To complicate matters, I haven't been using FreeBSD on my primary desktop or otherwise since early 2011. FreeBSD is listed as a tier one platform. Therefore, I am looking for someone that both the GCC steering committee and I would be willing to hand over the reigns before I drop my officially-listed maintainership. The expected person will likely already have Write After Approval status. Please contact me directly, if you are qualified and interested in becoming the freebsd OS port maintainer. Regards, Loren
