I have no issue giving up my maintainership if someone with commit wants
it, but would also be interested in helping if a puppet@ was formed - I
took maintainership to try to get some traction but pretty quickly hit some
upstream roadblocks that weren't easily solved in a way that the ports tree
would allow.
I can follow up with some Puppet folk - some of my upstream things are
merged - others are still open. Some were blockers for cfacter on FreeBSD.
I plan to hack on FreeBSD Puppet stuff all day at the contributor summit at
Puppetconf this year if there are others.
