An equally likely meaning (and the one I read into it) is that it might benefit a particular segment of Gentoo users, but as it's not the currently default/official package manager, it'd be a relatively small segment, made proportionally even smaller by the fact that these bindings would at least in the near term impact an even smaller segment of /that/ segment. A segment of an already minor segment (certainly currently, tho that /may/ eventually change), not likely to be something that can reasonably be characterized as benefiting Gentoo as a whole, at least in the near to medium term, and beyond that, well, things remain up for grabs. -- Duncan - List replies preferred.
