Daniel, I see you are the macports maintainer for bind9 which I am  
trying to create a variant for. I wouldn't call my work patch quality  
yet.

If I wanted to share what I have found with a maintainer and get some  
feedback and learn enough about macports to be able to offer quality  
patches is there an email list or forum target for this type of  
discussion?


TIA,

Brad
