Comparison, which way to roll?

Hello All,

I have been trying to find the right *nix for me. I'm *nix proficient, but not pure admin like a lot of you here. I love FreeBSD, I would only setup FreeBSD systems for work for the longest time. I played with some Linux, not very impressed, until I found Gentoo. I'm now in love with Gentoo. Mainly because of its portage system. So, here's my questions:

1. Does FreeBSD have any plans to implement a portage-like system?
2. What other *nix flavors with these kinds of port management systems do you use or like?

Thanks!
