Out of 9694 Portfiles total:

root at nopileos~# find
/opt/local/var/macports/sources/macports.rsync.ionic.de/release/ports/ -iname
"Portfile" -exec zsh -c 'i="{}"; PORT="${i%%/Portfile}"; PORT="${PORT##*/}";
DATETIME="$(grep "^#.*Id: Portfile.*" "${i}" | cut -d " " -f 5)"; YEAR="$(cut -d
"-" -f 1 <<< "$DATETIME")"; MONTH="$(cut -d "-" -f 2 <<< "$DATETIME")"; [[
"$YEAR" -lt "2014" ]] && { echo "${PORT}: ${YEAR} ${MONTH}" } || { [[ "$MONTH"
-lt "2" ]] && echo "${PORT}: ${YEAR} ${MONTH}" }' \;
| wc -l
7369

Thus, most of them haven't been updated within 6 months. My estimation seems to
have been way off.
