Comment (by JGoldstone):

 FYI, in the OpenEXR installation instructions, the OpenEXR TSC has now
 deprecated installation via MacPorts because it is so out of date.

 Discounting release candidate tags, and 2.x back port releases after we
 moved on to 3.x, the MacPorts port of OpenEXR is at a least 25 versions
 behind the current release. Our installation instructions for macOS now
 explicitly recommend Homebrew; see
 https://github.com/AcademySoftwareFoundation/openexr/pull/1382/files.

 The invitation is still open for you to show up at our biweekly TSC
 meetings and suggest how we might make the situation better.
