In this case, I don't think you were totally wrong ;-)

When we originally did our Portmgr elections the plan was for a  
limited term (but allowing people to run for re-election).  
Additionally, there was an at least tacit understanding that people  
who ended up not having enough time to dedicate to the project would  
step down.

I'm not trying to call anyone out (and I'm not trying to start a power  
struggle - I certainly don't have enough time to dedicate to MacPorts  
right now to consider being on portmgr).
