I disagree there. A message, even if it's just on the main MacPorts site, at least lets users know that you're aware of the issue and are working on it, without requiring each interested party to contact one of the mailing lists. The lists certainly aren't drowning in traffic, but a banner on the main page is going to reach a wider audience. Anyway, here's to hoping for better lines of communication with the admin. -- arno s hautala /-| [email protected] pgp b2c9d448 _______________________________________________ macports-dev mailing list [email protected] https://lists.macosforge.org/mailman/listinfo/macports-dev
