The MacPorts PortMgr team is the steering group for The MacPorts Project. Its membership is usually determined by public elections among project members; the current members of the team can be found on the MacPorts Developers wiki page.

They are responsible for matters such as:

  • approving new project members (i.e., granting commit rights);

  • setting general guidelines for the project;

  • dispute resolution;

  • managing the projects infrastructure; and

  • engineering releases.
