It seems to me that what I should *really* do is to learn about your ports system, get my program set up for it and contribute it to MacPorts.
I think you'd find no disagreement on this point!
(fwiw, I understand that tuxmath is in the FreeBSD ports collection, although I am not involved with it - I assume studying the FreeBSD port of my project would be a good starting point?)
Sure - a lot of folks refer to other ports collections as a good way of getting a rough idea of what the dependencies are, where to fetch the bits, etc. You could certainly do a lot worse.
Also, is this list just for development of the port infrastructure itself, or is it also the place for help with individual ports by "client" programmers like me?
Both! Welcome. - Jordan
