Define "submitted". If the new port is sitting in a Trac ticket that is not 
marked as fixed and there's no revision number listed, then it takes as long as 
it takes for someone to notice the ticket, test the attachment, and commit it 
to the Subversion repository. Once it's committed, the committer should mark 
the ticket as fixed and state what revision number the change was committed in. 
Once that happens, it takes 30 minutes for the change to propagate from 
Subversion to the rsync server, and up to an hour for the PortIndex to get 
regenerated. At that point, users can run "sudo port selfupdate" and the 
updated port is then available to them.
