I can share some frustration. About a year ago, I made a port for erlang (the "current" port just doesn't work at all, and it's ancient anyway, so *anything* is better than the in-tree port). IIRC got feedback by one other person that it basically works. Nothing got committed, I didn't have the energy to follow on upon it. A few months later, someone asked about erlang, I answered and mailed the port of last summer, then IIRC that someone made an updated port (a newer Erlang release was out, and a few changes in the ports infrastructure) and submitted it. Again, nothing got committed, even though just *anything* would be better than the in-tree port. Kind regards, Hannah.
