Quoth Nicolas de Bari Embriz Garcia Rojas on Wednesday, 17 November 2010:
Hi, On November 6, I submitted a New port:
http://www.FreeBSD.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=ports/151988 so far the
submissions seems to be on standby.
My question is, if for adding a port takes a 'couple of months' how
much does it take for updating current existing ports ?
regards.

It depends on the nature and extent of the update. I submitted an update
to a port that I maintain, and it was committed in under 21 minutes.
Conversely, I submitted a patch to one of the general port Makefiles, and that
took about 45 days. Even though it was a very small patch, I presume the
committers were more cautious with a change that could affect a lot of
users.
