Hi Rémy,

Aren't the version numbers missing from the package names?
There's a "version" just under the Portfile "name", currently "11.5.1" (Portfile has been updated since my first post ;) ).
Would you prefer a different naming/versioning scheme ?
Not really. I was just wondering. As long as it's logical for a MacPorts user, I'm happy with it.
The monetdb5-server package just adds an auto-startup entry, right? It doesn't install anything. Is this regular practice for MacPorts?
I started up with another database's Portfile as an example and collected what I thought to be best practices from a representative set of ports.
Ok, that's usually a good approach ;)
At this time, we don't have the resources to maintain this, but we encourage getting these into MacPorts proper. We would appreciate if you would take maintainership for this, and update the Portfiles as necessary for newer releases.
I'd be glad to submit it and maintain it.
Any remarks (naming, versioning, description, whatever…) before I proceed ?
Nope, just let us know how it goes!
Thanks again
