--- Comment #6 from Chris Hutchinson <portmaster at bsdforge.com> ---
Honestly, my first impression was; WHAT?! you've got to be kidding.
So I resisted the temptation to "react". :)
After having given some "objective" thought...
In my personal opinion, this adds additional complexity which
is ultimately counter-productive to the current ports system.
That said. I *do* appreciate the OP's objective, and I think
the simplest solution would be for a "team" to adopt a pseudo
name, and setup a mail address "my-port-team at some-mail-exchanger".
Where each of the members could gain access to the mailings, and
they could subscribe their pseudo name to the relevant mailing
list(s). Then there wouldn't be a "single point of failure",
as the OP seems to suggest the primary problem lies. This would
also give them the opportunity to communicate with each other,
as a group.

Just my humble thoughts on the matter.

All the best.
