 The MacPorts project has the following complaints about the darwinports .com web site:
 
- * It doesn't prominently state that it's not an official source of information about MacPorts, nor does it provide a link to the official MacPorts site. The statement that "This is a home grown fan site" is burried under (as of April 20, 2010) 28 other bullet points on the homepage; this is completely overshadowed by the false claim in the window titlebar and at the top of the page that it is "The Original !DarwinPorts," which it isn't (see MacPortsHistory).

  * It claims to be "a full weekly mirror of the main Darwin Ports repository at: darwinports.opendarwin.org," but the site it claims to be a mirror of has not existed for years, and the Portfiles shown on the web site are, as of April 20, 2010, five months out of date.
  * It provides inaccurate instructions for configuring MacPorts and installing ports.
  * It provides links that invite you to download "!DarwinPorts 1.7," but no such software exists: the last version of !DarwinPorts was 1.3.2 and the first version of MacPorts was 1.4.0; see our [browser:downloads old downloads directory]. The "!DarwinPorts 1.7.0" files you'll end up downloading from the site are our MacPorts 1.7.0 files which have just been renamed and uploaded to a different server.
