No. Gentoo needs to make intelligent decisions, whether it comes from a single individual or an army doesn't matter. A good idea is a good idea. The main thing that we need to do is keep admitting when we're wrong. If we're wrong, admit it and fix it. It really is that simple. Nobody expects us to be perfect, but we should still strive for it. At the same time, I think sometimes taking action, even the wrong one, is better than sitting around postulating endlessly. I would much rather see something done, found to be wrong, reverted, and replaced over time than nothing be done at all because nobody can agree 100% on the "right" way to do it. -- Chris Gianelloni Release Engineering Strategic Lead Alpha/AMD64/x86 Architecture Teams Games Developer/Council Member/Foundation Trustee Gentoo Foundation
