Comment(by marin.saric@…):

 Definitely!

 I am going to work with the OGRE team to upstream this so it's ready for
 Ogre 1.8 which will come out end of this year or early next year. OGRE
 just very recently switched to CMake (in v1.7.3), so the MacOS X side of
 the CMake build was still in early development. I made sure my
 CMakeLists.txt changes don't mess with the existing ports, including the
 existing MacOS SDK build.

 It's a kind of a chicken and egg problem, but if I can show them, {{{sudo
 port install ogre-static}}} and everything magically works, I think it's a
 powerful demo.

 The ultimate goal is to make code built with OIS and OGRE able to be
 recompiled for Linux, MacOS and Windows without any code changes, and I
 think it can be achieved as early as next release of OGRE. Having this in
 would help tremendously!

 Thanks for telling me about the {{{conflicts}}} keyword. I was hoping
 something like that exists, I knew it was there for variants. I just saw
 it in the Portfile example in
 [http://guide.macports.org/#development.practices.rename-replace-port
 section 4.7.6 Renaming or replacing a port]. It should probably be
 documented in [http://guide.macports.org/#reference.keywords section 5.1
 Global Keywords]..

 I don't have SVN access yet... I hope to apply soon. Is it OK if you make
 the "conflicts" change to the Portfile(s)?
