Comment(by Sam.Halliday@…):
As with all OSS, it would be better distributed in Macports because it
would use system libraries instead of bundled versions (e.g. growl), but
primarily because it would be part of the "port updated outdated" process
for keeping software up to date. If an application is not part of macports
or App Store, then I find it requires additional effort to keep it up to
date. Exceptions include large pieces of software such as Microsoft Office
and Netbeans, which provide their own update managers.
I could ask the same question you have just posed to a wide variety of
macport software!
