As a maintainer of several ports, I can assure you that I would not be 
interested in doing *more* work on the ports than I already am.  And my 
ports are relatively simple ones.  Imagine the guys who do KDE and Gnome 
and Xorg being asked to at least double their work.....

Sometimes you have to keep in mind that we're all volunteers here and 
many of us are already very busy with paying jobs as well.

If someone wants to pay my salary, I'd be happy to work on FreeBSD stuff 
fulltime.
