It would be better not to add all this "###" formatting. Remember that "notes" does word wrapping to the width of the terminal window; applying your own formatting like this kind of defeats that.

If you believe the way MacPorts outputs notes is not sufficiently noticeable, then it should be fixed in MacPorts base globally, not in each individual Portfile.

Also, "notes" should be declared at the top level of the Portfile, not inside a phase; that way, a user can run "port notes" to read them.

Here is a patch that makes these changes.
