getting pymol into ports/science?

[Jack Howarth]

  I have had pymol as an open ticket for several weeks
now... 

http://trac.macports.org/ticket/21376

What exactly is the process for getting a package
into the dports archive so that it is available to other
users? The absence of scientific packages like pymol
costs MacPorts a lot of potential users. It also is
one if the most severe tests of the OpenGL support
in X11 so it should be available for testing the
Xquartz releases on MacPorts. Currently it works fine
when built against a tcl which uses--disable-core-foundation...

FYI, if MacPorts had wider range of packages, the breakage
in tcl (as of 8.5.7) would have been more easily noticed.
