Well, I'm not sure both groups are actually working on the same
problem, to be honest.  From what I understand, OpenPackages is
attempting a far more pragmatic approach to bridging existing
ports/packages technologies so that all the *BSD (and perhaps Linux)
groups have something more closely resembling a unified technology
base.  The PackageNG AKA libh project is working on something much
more research-oriented and nobody is even willing to commit to a date
when/if this will become an operational "product", it's that radically
different.
