I would really prefer it if the developer would release a new version, if they believe the code is in a stable state to be used by users. However, since the last change was in 2009, perhaps the project is abandoned. Have you already tried to contact the developer about this, and about moving the project away from Google Code, since that hosting service is being discontinued? -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/47573#comment:2> MacPorts <https://www.macports.org/> Ports system for OS X

Mee too, but we currently have no other code than that.
However, since the last change was in 2009, perhaps the project is abandoned.
