I'd like to point out that mpwa, as deployed at http://
db.macports.org has schema support for most of what is required for
this, including problem reports and build output/logs from ports.

Hello again Simon!
Top posting to make one general and quick comment on this topic.
I am very
very interested in this attempt of yours and will look into it in
detail
later on, so do expect many questions on what you did coming my
way ;-)
But in the mean time, would you care to read my entry on logging
support
for MacPorts "action targets" (read, those that drive a port
toward its
destroot)?
http://trac.macports.org/projects/macports/wiki/PortLoggingProposal
Following the website redesign, this is my number one priority
and would
indeed love to spark some interest from our developers base. It is
one of
the goals of my proposal to use the results of logs to create
build result
pages & summaries like yours on an automated fashion, as detailed
in the
Wiki doc, so I hope you'll find it interesting.

Hi Juan,
I'm glad you like my small attempt ;-)
I like your entry very much, it's very interesting and a good idea.
Your idea
with the possibility to send the log messages to macports in case
of an error
is perfect. This makes maintaining much easier as we (the
maintainers) have
all necessary information and don't have to ask the user to use -d or
something similar.
It would also be easier to handle build failures as -d is no longer
necessary,
which clutters the terminal.
And of course for a buildfarm it would make parsing the output of
port much
easier and less error prone.
I hope after the website we can work on a design for this and add
it to
macports as it's a real good and I think also important feature.
Simon
