Hello and welcome!

I think the way it works is this: if you would like to contribute new  
portfiles, or update existing portfiles, please do so and submit  
patches. If there are ports you use or like which are not maintained,  
offer to become the maintainer.

If you want to contribute to the core MacPorts code, submit patches  
to that as well.

Once you submit enough quality patches, perhaps you will be  
considered for receiving commit access.
