Thank you for your hard work, Thomas.

Can I make 2 suggestions?

1. Can you ask PR senders if they are intersted in becoming maintainer if port
doesn't have a maintaner?  Sender was moticvated enough to make a patch.

2. Can you assign two or more maintaners to a port?  This may improve
response time of PRs.

Regards,
Hiro
