There is no pre-set timeline. Committers might occasionally look through unassigned tickets for new ports or port updates and commit them if they look good and seem to compile. The fewer changes we have to make to what's been submitted, the more likely it is to get included quickly. Some suggestions have been left for you in the tickets about how the Portfiles could be improved to the point that they would be accepted. You should attach new Portfiles that include those changes.
