Changing port maintainership rules (was: Re: [70103] trunk/dports/lang/parrot/Portfile)

[Jeremy Lavergne]

> 	I think keeping the (no)openmaintainer bits we have now is the right approach.  For example, for ports that have wide-spread impact (like autoconf as mentioned above), we don't want anyone to just go "ooh, look, new version, let's commit that" - those that  maintain the port and/or understand what it does may well be holding back on doing an update for good reasons, and that needs to be respected.

Shouldn't a ticket be opened to track the decision to not upgrade?
