But while we can all decide to continue to be dicks over this I still completely fail to see how it *helps* solve anything. And I guess we want to solve the problems instead of just continuing the flames, right?
So please ignore previous flames and lets focus on the actual problems. Problems like MIPS being behind on some packages and latest stable or testing version getting dropped for archs quite often. That's something I'd like to see people spending their time on fixing instead of just adding fuel to the flames. Regards, Bryan Østergaard -- gentoo-dev@gentoo.org mailing list
