You are talking about the "Authors" section at the end of "man port" for example? I see several @opendarwin.org addresses which might not be valid anymore. I also see several peoples' names listed who aren't active with the project anymore.

But I'm not sure it's the best strategy to try to keep that list updated with new people. I don't know whom to properly consider "authors" of MacPorts. Can we just delete that section, or refer people to the MacPortsDevelopers wiki page?
