Bug ID: 206922
Summary: Handbook: Chapter 4.5+ changes
Product: Documentation
Version: Latest
Hardware: Any
OS: Any
Status: New
Severity: Affects Only Me
Priority: ---
Component: Documentation

I can provide changes once the approach is approved.
Chapter 4.5 "Using the Ports Collection" discusses portmaster in an
inappropriate way, e.g. "recommended tool for upgrading installed ports". I do
not believe this is accurate (in other words, is it really recommended? if so,
it must be officially maintained).
I suggest the following:
1) remove all references to portmaster from chapter 4.5
2) add a new section either after 4.5 or after 4.6 (poudriere) that describes
how to maintain using Synth, which has gotten a lot of testing recently.
It would not belong in 4.5 because it's closer to poudriere than PortUpgrade.
If people agree, I can start working on the text.
