There is no port database that tracks this kind of metadata. A service that tracks changes to PortIndex would actually be quite nice... At the moment, you can only filter the Subversion commit log and look for added Portfiles. With a little bit of quick hacking I came up with this command, which prints the port directories added in the last two weeks: svn log -v -r"{$(date -v-2w +'%Y-%m-%d')}":HEAD https://svn.macports.org/repository/macports/trunk/dports \ |grep -E '^\s{3}A.*Portfile$' |awk -F/ '{print $5}' With some more processing you could also retrieve the commit message or extract the port's description.
