Set your mail-address here. Please. :-)
Note that only a single address without the comment part is allowed as a MAINTAINER value. The format used should be [email protected]. Please do not include any descriptive text such as your real name in this entry--that merely confuses bsd.port.mk.
The maintainer is responsible for keeping the port up to date, and ensuring the port works correctly. For a detailed description of the responsibilities of a port maintainer, refer to the The challenge for port maintainers section.
Changes to the port will be sent to the maintainer of a port for a review and an
approval before being committed. If the maintainer does not respond to an update request
after two weeks (excluding major public holidays), then that is considered a maintainer
timeout, and the update may be made without explicit maintainer approval. If the
maintainer does not respond within three months, then that maintainer is considered
absent without leave, and can be replaced as the maintainer of the particular port in
question. Exceptions to this are anything maintained by the Ports Management Team <[email protected]>
, or the Security
Officer Team <[email protected]>
.
No unauthorized commits may ever be made to ports maintained by those groups.
We reserve the right to modify the maintainer's submission to better match existing policies and style of the Ports Collection without explicit blessing from the submitter. Also, large infrastructural changes can result in a port being modified without maintainer's consent. This kind of changes will never affect the port's functionality.
The Ports Management Team <[email protected]>
reserves the right
to revoke or override anyone's maintainership for any reason, and the Security Officer
Team <[email protected]>
reserves the right to revoke or override maintainership for security reasons.
