++, but frankly the committers are probably in the best place to do any evaluation even if they likely have some bias. If you wanted to delve into the merits of portage vs paludis you'd be far more informed by a discussion between the respective devs (even if flames are involved) than listening to some Ubuntu users go on about which ones were the ricers. Keeping things civil of course is desirable all the same. A wiki page might be a good place for this. Perhaps we should have some category for point-in-time analyses/evaluations/etc when things like this come up. A page like this might be something that gets attention from the linux community in general. If we want it to be anything other than a raging flamewar it might require moderation, and a lot of sticking to the facts and looking at it pragmatically from a "what makes sense for a distro" standpoint rather than "which is the better project" standpoint.
