Yes, anything that is relevant to the development experience on this platform. Remember: it is more than just getting ghc. How do they get hold of new libraries and apps? Is cabal-install available?

Impressive. I added some text explaining how to install GHC through MacPorts, but I don't really have any experience with it, so if anyone has improvements, feel free to correct. Also, if someone could add some reasons to (not) install through MacPorts instead of the standalone installer, that'd be nice. Martijn.
