Comment(by michelle.lynn.gill@…):

 From my experience, Macports usually focuses on stable releases and Julia
 isn't considered stable yet. Much to the contrary, it's undergoing rapid
 development right now. Thus, it could be quite time consuming, both for
 someone to create/maintain a port and for users to be constantly
 installing updates. That said, I imagine such a submission would be
 appreciated if you were interested in creating it.

 Also, I'd add that it looks like the Julia people are working on
 [https://github.com/JuliaLang/julia/tree/master/contrib this] already.
 (Or, it may already be working, I haven't tested it yet.) Thus, it's
 probably wise not to duplicate efforts.
