</span>Wonderful, that's very good news, that will make it much easier to<br>
proceed with the rest of the tasks.<br>
<br>
Now:<br>
- play a bit with "port search python", "port info python27", ...<br>
- try to install some super simple packages[***]<br>
- try to run "port -v livecheck category:math" to see if you can get<br>
livecheck running correctly (you'll need that info)<br>
- try to install "sudo port install mpstats", then "port contents<br>
mpstats"; if successful, you should see a new entry at<br>
<a href="http://stats.macports.neverpanic.de/os_statistics#os_platform" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">http://stats.macports.<wbr>neverpanic.de/os_statistics#<wbr>os_platform</a><br>
I forgot the exact command, but there's a way to show what will be<br>
submitted, I guess you can find that out by inspecting the source or<br>
by running help or something<br>
(I'm not behind my mac at the moment)<br>
<br>
<br>
Just try to get familiar with the "port" command and then proceed to<br>
whatever other point you want, like<br>
<br>
<br>
- trying to get buildbot master and slave installed (I guess you can<br>
install them from the native package manager; alternatively via<br>
virtualenv which gives you slightly more flexibility in picking up the<br>
exact version that you want); the next step would be to try to<br>
replicate our setup, see<br>

<br>
- converting the application (without personal details) into<br>
documentation/plan in a git(hub) repository (something like a markdown<br>
document)<br>
<br>
- (lower priority) proceeding with the simple html page that you<br>
started working on as a coding challenge, as part of improving &<br>
finalizing the plan for the summer<br>
<br>
- any other item from suggestions sent earlier<br>

[***] It's hard to tell what "simple packages" are, but if "platforms"<br>
contains "linux", there's at least a somewhat bigger chance that it<br>
will compile correctly. I guess you can expect a number of failures<br>
because the number of macports users on linux is super limited. Also,<br>
the build time might be somewhat high since everything needs to be<br>
compiled from source. A package like "mpstats" should be simple enough<br>
though, I assume you can find some others. Avoid anything that depends<br>
on Qt.<br>
