security/luasec needs bump to 0.5 - but there's no direct maintainer?

[Benjamin Podszun]

Hi.

Change of mail address, new thread with a decent title (previously: prosody 
update, which is sort of independent as far as I've confirmed so far).

With the attached patch luasec-0.5 builds & installs fine in my 
environment.

IF (capitals used for a reason..) I understand the following output 
correctly, there's just one (known) consumer for that port:

#pkg info -r lua51-luasec
lua51-luasec-0.4:
	prosody-0.9.2

(where prosody in this case is already bumped to the last release, I'm 
trying to push that in [1], as a follow-up to a 0.9.1 bump that never 
landed)

Would it be correct to assume that therefor the risk in bumping luasec is 
quite small, especially since I'm successfully _running_ prosody [2] using 
that port?

Being utterly clueless: What's the right procedure to move forward, 
especially without a dedicated maintainer for that thing? Hoping for a 
sponsor on this list? Should I stop the discussion here and send a PR 
instead - hoping that someone accepts that one?

Thanks a lot in advance,
Ben

2: This instance is nothing but a 'do these ports run' deployment, but
2.1 c2s results: 
https://xmpp.net/result.php?domain=dar-klajid.de&type=client
2.2 s2s results: 
https://xmpp.net/result.php?domain=dar-klajid.de&type=server

Basically this means that client and server connections work AND encryption 
(which is the whole point of using luasec in the first place) works quite 
well/gets great scores w/ the right configuration. Haven't looked into PFS 
support yet, but .. that's a different issue.
