Hi, could a commiter have a look to #31718 ?

I try to keep messages to mailing lists as short as possible in order to 
not waste people's time. This time it was indeed too short.

I did ask for commit access in the past and my request has been 
rejected. I don't want to submit a new one: I don't have enough 
experience to write portfiles and did several mistakes which have been 
catched by experienced commiters. This helped me a lot and I learned a 
lot fixing them.
This check done by experienced committers aslo increased the quality of 
my portfiles to the desired standard of the macports project, which 
reduced the potential support requests for problems related to my portfiles.

Regards,
Francois.
