I am still evaluating whether I will be using this software in our  
infrastructure.  If I do (which seems likely), I plan to adopt the  
port once 2.0 is released.  I don't see a compelling reason to keep a  
separate 2.0 version of the port as it is back-compatible, and I  
believe that the base port name, syslog-ng, should be the latest  
version always.  That's how I maintain the postfix port, too :-)
