My suggestion would be to start pull the packages from wip which are  
already in pkgsrc, but with old or outdated versions. That probably  
done fast and it also probably benefits the masses, since those  
packages where imported because they where needed. Of course, that's  
not as fun as adding new "functionality" to pkgsrc, but it makes  
pkgsrc more up-to-date.

(I've added some already existing packages (updated versions) to wip  
because the packages I wanted to create from the beginning was  
depending on a newer versions of software which wasn't available in  
pkgsrc-current.)
