No need to report success. If the maintainer is happy with the ebuild and there are no bugs filed for 30 days (or is it 90?) the package will be moved from testing (~arch) to stable (arch). Remember that these keywords are (generally) for the ebuild, and doesn't indicate how well the product provided by upstream works. -- Boyd Stephen Smith Jr. [EMAIL PROTECTED] ICQ: 514984 YM/AIM: DaTwinkDaddy -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
