+==== Collect build statistics ==== #build-stats
+
+Go through the [https://build.macports.org history of builds] and collect per-port statistics & success matrix:
+* whether the current version of port built on each particular OS/arch
+* when was the last time the port built on that OS/arch
+* links to all builds
+* list of installed files, differences in installed files on different OS versions
+* perhaps include some basic functionality to allow checking for build reproducibility
+* what is the latest version of port (in case it's already outdated), ...
+It would be nice to get a decent website for each port to get a quick overview of the port status & health across different OSes. (Part of statistics collection could also be implemented as an extension to Buildbot or Buildbot setup.)
