Rainer,

you are wrong here. You may do the main work at your favourite
platform:

o  fetch new files;
o  create new distinfo;
o  update Makefile accordingly;
o  test old patches (maybe write new);
o  edit pkg-plist file;
o  do build/install/deinstall/package testing;
o  create patch and send-pr it.

And at last a committer will check the patch on other platforms. But
it were _you_ who did the main work!

If you have quiestions on that (well, not very easy) way, you may ask
them here. Somebody will help you. It is a way how FreeBSD is going
on.
