Hi, two tips.
1. Your subject does not reflect the content of your mail. It might not  
attract the right people to read it.
2. See http://www.freshports.org/contact.php and contact the site owner or  
use the Forums link there. In my experience Dan Langille is quite  
responsive.

NB: I also like this changelog site:

Regards,
Ronald.
