Problems installing Oregano.

I noticed that it was an old version too. I've already downloaded the
oregano-0.69.0 source, but I'm not sure how to compile it against what
macports has installed. I would actually be glad to update the
package, but I'm not sure how to go about doing that (e.g. rewriting
the portfile, etc.). What section of the wiki should I read?
I'd be fine just getting it to run on my machine, but it's a shame
it's not available to everyone.
Cheers,
Mike
