Note that everything in contrib/ doesn't really have a way of filing tickets
against them.  Perhaps we instead need a Contrib/Other milestone for such
things?

That's exactly what #14909 is about :-)

MPAB is not part of base, so I don't see why it should go into MacPorts
${version} where we keep the tickets for the releases.

The good thing is, the roadmap offers quick access to active tickets in
each milestone. If we switch to component/type instead, I would say we
need to add similar reports or create such a wiki page with Trac query
links.

Nobody objected, so I created the new milestone.

Interesting. I hadn't seen that ticket before.

new milestone: Port Binaries

[Darren Weber]

How about a new milestone for trac: binary distributions?  I guess most of
this would focus on mpab and adaptations to port to enable binary
installations.

Take care, Darren
