--- Comment #8 from Laurent Chardon <laurent.chardon@gmail.com> ---
I also think that the default option should not depend on Slurm, as I see no
reason for it. MPI and batch scheduling are complementary but distinct from
each other. In fact, it appears from the above comments that Slurm and MPI =
are
not currently used together on FreeBSD.

I'll make flavors of openmpi and mpich with Slurm, with the base being
independent of any scheduler. I won't make a TORQUE flavor, as it seems to =
no
longer receive updates. The last TORQUE release dates back from 8 years ago=
 and
sysutils/torque is flagged as deprecated with expiry set to the end of this
month.=20

I would have liked to make these changes at the next version upgrade, as th=
ere
is a chance, even if minor, that it will create a disruption to some users.=
 I'd
rather not do that in a port revision if it can be avoided, but the TORQUE
removal is somewhat forcing my hand.

Thoughts?
