Also, maybe be more specific than "a certain time"? Perhaps something like "4-6 weeks" or whatever matches actual practice?

I'd like to keep the current statement, originally I wanted to put "2 weeks as the maintainer timeout" but I think it is somehow too long. Maybe adding "if it exceeds 2 weeks as the maintainer timeout, you definitely need to ask for attention." ?

That would work for me, sez the totally-not-a-ports-expert reviewer.

A minor rephrasing suggestion, other than that it looks good to me!

instead of adding a new phrase, I would just extend the initial phrase:

It may take minutes, or it may take one or two weeks - so please be patient. If it takes any longer, please seek for help on mailing lists (ports@freebsd.org), irc: #bsdports on efnet or #freebsd on libera for example.

Spelling and grammar look good to me.
