Every package has a valid MAINTAINER that you can output with:

	make show-var VARNAME=MAINTAINER

Those packages have no specific developer as the maintainer but are 
maintained by the pkgsrc developer and user communities as a whole.

If you experience build problems with a particular package, then posting 
here first is probably the best thing to do.  If it is a persistent 
build error that doesn't seem be getting fixed, then filing a PR using 
send-pr(1) should follow.
