Hard question to answer meaningfully (beyond "not a lot"), but as a rough metric, here are the commit counts to trunk/base in the last year: j...@macports.org 259 t...@macports.org 145 rai...@macports.org 121 b...@macports.org 79 pe...@macports.org 40 ryandes...@macports.org 34 a...@macports.org 20 s...@macports.org 13 j...@macports.org 7 wsiegr...@apple.com 6 gwhit...@macports.org 5 and...@macports.org 4 pgu...@kallisys.net 3 n...@macports.org 3 jerem...@macports.org 3 jbe...@macports.org 3 dl...@macports.org 2 si...@macports.org 1 m...@macports.org 1 mcalh...@macports.org 1 j...@apple.com 1 erid...@macports.org 1 and.dam...@macports.org 1 alaka...@macports.org 1 > These would be my next questions to keep this discussion going and > hopefully to get this repository project of the ground.. I should note at this point that there are a lot of bits and pieces of the functionality already around. See for example: <http://trac.macports.org/wiki/MPAB> <http://github.com/febeling/portmill> Note also that the images-and-archives branch created to work on <http://trac.macports.org/ticket/19458> is probably where you would want to be working if you were to add code to download archives. - Josh _______________________________________________ macports-users mailing list macports-users@lists.macosforge.org http://lists.macosforge.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/macports-users
