Obviously, it will happen gradually, in a piece-meal fashion; just like with recently introduced FOO_*_DEPENDS stuff. No one is talking about converting all ports at once. I personally really don't like to have two, often duplicating, lists of OPTIONS_DEFINE and _DEFAULT, esp. given the fact that OPTIONS_DEFAULT tends to break indentation. ./danfe
