Comment (by TP75):

 How to acknowledge this ticket and the current situation? The a.m. content
 needs an update itself as this ticket seems to be referred as blocker to
 LibreSSL in other tickets which I would call quite misleading.

 One may look at https://nodejs.org/en/ and you will find just two versions
 mentioned for macOS (x64):
   - 10.13.0 LTS - ''Recommended For Most Users''
   - 11.2.0 Current - ''Latest Features''

 However, there is also a release 2018-11-20, Version 8.13.0 '''Carbon'''
 (LTS) available. This may be reasonable for older ports and platforms.

 This is reflected by the available ports:
   - nodejs10 @10.13.0
   - nodejs11 @11.2.0
   - nodejs8 @8.12.0 ''(currently outdated due to the short schedule
 apparently)''

 IMHO this discussion should resolve on the future migration path and
 should not become too much of a backlog. I take the liberty in proposing
 to overcome the outdated ports before nodejs10 and would welcome if we
 could focus on the two LTS and the current version of NodeJS  if possible.
