*sigh* I have *never* argued that teams should not be able to run their own project-specific overlays. You are the perl team. You are more than welcome to run a perl overlay. I never said you shouldn't be able to do so, nor has anyone else that I have seen. Hell, *I* (with ikelos) have an overlay for vmware stuff. What we *are* arguing against is having something in a non-project-specific overlay, that is not maintained by the project in question, and has *specifically* been rejected by the project in question. This sort of thing should *never* make it into the sunrise overlay, since it has been rejected. An easy way to this about this is: If the kernel team made an overlay and included it, it would be OK. If sunrise does so, it isn't. Why? Because the kernel team already rejected it for inclusion. We shouldn't be going against the wishes of the Gentoo teams with an overlay like this. Please people, be sure you're actually commenting on the issues at hand, rather than just adding noise. -- Chris Gianelloni Release Engineering - Strategic Lead x86 Architecture Team Games - Developer Gentoo Linux
