Since we're sharing... I use a weekly launchd task [1] to run a script [2] that updates MacPorts, fetches and builds the outdated ports, removes the old inactive versions, and then signs the port archives. The call to portsign.sh at the end is explained at a the Wiki page on signing ports [2]. Once the Lion buildbot is complete (sounds like soon!) I may switch this to daily and update the script to "archivefetch" and "install" before the current "fetch" and "install". And yes, I'm keeping these scripts under /usr/local/. It's not generally a good idea to put things here when running MacPorts, but I do keep a small number of items in that prefix that I know will not interfere with MacPorts. I do intend to migrate to a different prefix at some point.
