The question ultimately is how to I know if I'm completely finished with
providing this port?

If I need to do something more or promise on-going maintenance to get
this minor port included in the big picture, that is to say: in
OpenBSD's public CVS repository, then I'm happy to get it done. If it's
enough to send in a tarball (as I've done already) and let the current
ports maintainers take over then I'm (more than) happy to do that.

Is "send a tarball to ports@ and forget about it" enough?
