 !DarwinPorts began as part of Apple's [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OpenDarwin OpenDarwin] effort, which was set up to provide an interface between Apple's developers and the open-source community. The !DarwinPorts web site was initially located at darwinports.opendarwin.org. In 2003 the project acquired its own domain, darwinports.org; both darwinports.opendarwin.org and www.darwinports.org continued to be used interchangeably for several years.
 
-In 2006 the !OpenDarwin project as a whole was shut down, and !DarwinPorts needed a new home. Apple set up [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mac_OS_Forge Mac OS Forge] to host Mac-related open-source projects, and the !DarwinPorts project accepted Apple's offer to be hosted there. In addition, in part to distance itself from a third party website that was confusing and misleading users (see DarwinPortsDotCom), and in part to better reflect the project's focus on Mac OS X, the project's name was [http://web.archive.org/web/20090906013546/http://article.gmane.org/gmane.os.opendarwin.darwinports/18725 changed to MacPorts] and the web site was moved to www.macports.org. The old address www.darwinports.org continues to redirect there. The MacPorts project also owns www.macports.com and www.macports.net.
