I’d like to see one of MacPorts’s goals be towards non-profit status, and ultimately to attract the attention of Apple again.  Apple needs MacPorts desperately, they just don’t know it yet…

I should clarify that I speak for myself and not for MacPorts, not being a member.  And my reference to Trac probably came across as derogatory, which was unintended.

I’m curious if your dislike extends to command-line tool git(1) or just the company built around it?
