That will be useful input when we discuss it again at ESO.

One other thing that came to mind: how could we control the binary package archive? How does one make sure binary packages are available at the same time as the Portfile is updated?
Currently we release prebuilt binary packages together with any Portfile updates at the same time to our repository. But that is because we control the FTP that stores all these files.
