Good to see you "back in business"!

Bringing in more than one version is OK, but what are people using the
most? Which ones are approaching end of life/support?

This one is easy: 1.9 is the one you should be porting. Both 1.7 and 1.8 will run out of community support in the course of 2022.

As far as the optional features, I can just leave a message after
installation about being able to get those features afterwards by
downloading the necessary packages.

Sounds like a sound approach: get the primary dependencies into OpenBSD first and work your way through the optionals based on your own needs and popular request.

I can't do any testing at home. The amdgpu firmware hasn't worked out
for my laptop.

I'm not sure I understand what problem you're having and how this relates to testing LedgerSMB: amdgpu sounds like a graphics card. You may want one when running a browser, but Firefox worked without one for a loooong time. So this shouldn't be a problem for LedgerSMB. Neither should it be for the server side.

Regards,

Bye,

Erik.
