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 primarily because it would be part of the "port updated outdated" process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!
