What should I do?

Hi,
I am curious about what I should do to get my new ports forward?
Updates proceed usually quite well, the record being an update to
fortune that was committed in minutes, compliments to the maintainer/
committer (toby)!
The concern is now a package of four ports that all go together. One
of the ports (midgard-core) is already in distribution, but the other
three (#7609, #7610, #7611) are still waiting. I even mailed the
category's responsible committer this week (cms), but nothing has
happened (is the documentation correct?). I don't know, whether the
72 hours rule applies here, but it would really be nice, if someone
could do something about them. I know each of you committers has lots
of other things to do, so the extra work here deserves gratitude, but
it is frustrating just to wait…
What should I do then? I have tested those ports and they should be
ok. I could modify the ports perhaps a bit and let bugzilla remind
people about those ports, then I could send these emails to list, but
I don't think this should be necessary.
Please, if there are some problems with the ports, I'd like to get
feedback to be able to correct them, but if not, I'd like to see them
in distribution!
Thanks for your patience,
