I've been thinking about adding a note to ports that have no maintainer
when installing them; something along the lines of
This port is unmaintained. Please consider becoming a maintainer. See
https://trac.macports.org/wiki/SomePageWithMoreInfo for details.
That being said, to answer your immediate question there's also the
statistics branch lying around that we could work on and get merged. It
seems to me there's only a few things to be done before a merge. I
already have the server-side setup and (coincidentially) did set up
automatic updates of the server's port list today.
