Justin, thats awesome piece of work.

Do you think it is a good idea to "weigh"
build-fail/broken/masked packages against a usage list like
https://www.osscensus.org/packages-rank-public.php?offset=0&limit=778&page=0

Using that approach one can showcase certain apps that
work/build exceptionally well on the DragonFlyBSD platform.

Perhaps somebody may have already reflected on this and 
that is something not obvious to a newbie like me. 


thanks
Saifi.
