I’m already maintaining some ports, I was thinking doing something on  
the lower levels. I took a look at some tickets listed here:
<http://trac.macports.org/query?status=new&status=reopened&component=base&order=priority&col=id&col=summary&col=status&col=owner&col=type&col=priority&col=port&type=%21enhancement

Maybe I’ll find something to start with.

Re: the livechecks. Is there a way to maintain a parallel macports  
system, say one under /opt/local and one under ~/ports?
