That would be only for https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=257991 Now, if Cory has more unmaintained ports (can't check right now) and Sergei steps up to take the task, I would ask him to open a new PR requesting maintainership. If he doesn't, it might still be good to open the PR and reset maintainership. That way at least more people would be notified via portscout when there is a new upstream version. Someone might come along and update the port :-) HTH > Thanks, > > Nuno Teixeita >
