The best thing to do is file a ticket in our issue tracker for each port. Set the Type to "enhancement" and the Milestone to "Port Requests". Here are instructions for filing tickets: http://guide.macports.org/#project The best way to get ports added is to write them yourself. Instructions for writing portfiles are in the guide too: http://guide.macports.org/ You can also learn how to write portfiles by reading the existing portfiles. > The ports I'd like to request are: > > bwctl > command line client application and a scheduling and policy daemon > that > wraps Iperf > http://e2epi.internet2.edu/bwctl/ > > mturoute > check the mtu values between you and a host > http://www.elifulkerson.com/projects/mturoute.php > > npad Pathdiag > http://www.psc.edu/networking/projects/pathdiag/ > > OWAMP > command line client application and a policy daemon used to > determine one > way latencies between hosts > http://e2epi.internet2.edu/owamp/ > > thrulay is used to measure the capacity of a network by sending a > bulk TCP stream over it > Like other tools (such as iperf, netperf, nettest, nuttcp, ttcp, > etc.), > thrulay can report TCP throughput periodically so that TCP > performance > plots can be produced.
