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.
