As changes are committed to them. When there is a lull, we manually schedule batches of ports. The method of choosing which ports to schedule is somewhat undefined. If there is a port you would like to have built, let me know and I'll schedule it. For the past several days, it has been busy building all python modules. > How long does it take for all ports to build, in case it's set to do so? We do not have an easy way to schedule a build of all ports right now. And if we attempted to do so, it would take several weeks to do. I'm writing a longer email about this topic and some of the difficulties, which will be posted on the macports-dev mailing list shortly.
