The "FreeBSD leaders," in their infinite wisdom, decided to can John
Marino. Synth development will likely go on, geared towards Dragonfly.
Whether it will support future FreeBSD ports enhancements is anyone's
guess.

While i can follow the critique i want to say: out of experience in various communities - online and offline: if one project is centered around one single person it will fail. Its just a matter of time and exceptions are rarely.

If someone likes synth please support it. Programming is just one single part needed to keep a project alive, even a programming-project. If you feel you are not a programmer, but for example a manager, manage to ask people for support, for feedback, for programming, etc.
