 Hi there,

 I use ncview a lot for my work. However, I usually build it "by hand". I
 noticed that the macports version is pretty outdated, and it fails to
 install on my computer (MacPorts version 2.4.1). Sadly, it has no
 maintainer either.

 Since I am really familiar with its dependencies and building process, I'd
 like to volunteer to being its maintainer (and also update the whole
 thing).

 I have the source-code of the latest version, and I have also written a
 Portfile that I think should work to install it (still might need some
 adjustments though). I also do have a github account.

 Can anyone please guide me on how to become the maintainer of this port so
 I can update it to the latest version?

 Any direction appreciated!
