Perhaps you have not yet seen this section of the FAQ:
Quote:
15.4.4 - Why is there no port of my Top-Favorite-Software?
The ports collection is a volunteer project.
Active port development is done by a limited number of people, in their spare time. These people usually make new ports only for software they use directly or are interested in.
You can help. Consider creating your own port. There is some documentation available on this: the OpenBSD Porter's Handbook. Read it, and read it again. Especially the part about maintaining your port. Then try making a new port, and test it carefully and step by step. If finally it works OK for you, submit it to the ports mailing list at ports@openbsd.org. Chances are good you will get some feedback and testing from other people. If the testing is successful, your port will be considered to be taken up in the ports tree.
