Expulsion of John Marino was a shocker to me, caught me by

Now my question is what is the status of synth?
Should I switch from portmaster to synth?
If synth is deprecated or dropped, after I switch from
portmaster to synth, then I have to switch back, and this would
be a monster mess of extra work.
Not to be inflammatory here, just want to know where I/we stand
and don't want to go too far off course updating my ports.
I don't recommend portmaster for anybody. It's unmaintained, it
already causes headaches on upgrades, and even though it works
now, it is unlikely to keep working as the ports tree evolves.
This is FUD. Yes, portmaster can be less maintained, but it works
without observable issues, at least I don't see any problems with
it on my systems. synth and poudriere lacks the ability to set and
maintain port options recursively, eliminating any practical (from
user perspective, not developer) use of such software stand alone.
Sure it does.
poudriere options -j jailname editors/vim
Sets options recursively.
Not seeing any problems with it right now isn't the point of my
message. The point is that portmaster WILL break when new features
(currently in progress) are added to the ports build system, and
being unmaintained, there's no guarantees that it will ever unbreak.
I used to do that sort thing in tinderbox, with poudriere and the new
options framework I prefer to set my options in make.conf.
For every build -
/usr/local/etc/poudriere.d/make.conf
OPTIONS_SET= OPTIMIZED_CFLAGS SIMD PGSQL IPV6
editors_vim_SET= CSCOPE X11 GTK3 PYTHON
You can also get more specific by using -
/usr/local/etc/poudriere.d/<setname>-make.conf
/usr/local/etc/poudriere.d/<tree>-make.conf
/usr/local/etc/poudriere.d/<jailname>-make.conf
/usr/local/etc/poudriere.d/<jailname>-<tree>-make.conf
/usr/local/etc/poudriere.d/<jailname>-<setname>-make.conf
/usr/local/etc/poudriere.d/<jailname>-<tree>-<setname>-make.conf
