The month is not set in stone. About who marks them, it's probably best to get the opinion of the arch teams. I don't think they will object to normal developers marking them. Arch teams: what do you think? Speaking for x86/amd64 and Emacs...I am ok with that. :) So, only this reply. May I conclude that nobody objects to the above? Ulrich -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
[gentoo-dev] Maintainers desired for a few simple pkgs.
I'm looking to get rid of a few ebuilds I half ass maintain. net-wireless/chillispot (Open source captive portal or wireless LAN access point controller) sys-devel/sparse (C semantic parser) Both are relativity low maintenance. Any takers? pretty please with party socks on top. -- Ned Ludd [EMAIL PROTECTED] Gentoo Linux -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list

It has several knows issues, that has been fixed in net-libs/libupnp, which is a fork of net-misc/upnp. Unless anyone objects (and with a very good reason), I will remove it from the tree on June 29.

[gentoo-dev] RFC: new bugzilla resolution: NEEDPATCH
I'm sure I'm not the only one who knows a number of (enhancement) bugs that are fixable, but the assignee doesn't have the motivation to come up with a solution, but would look at and eventually include a user-submitted patch for it. Currently those would either be left open forever or closed as WONTFIX which isn't compeltely accurate. Therefore I propose a new bugzilla resolution NEEDPATCH so we're not stuck with tons of open bugs that might never be closed (or get closed with a somewhat incorrect resolution). It might also give people who want to help a simpler target instead of browsing through all open bugs and trying to find one where a user can work on. Opinions?

Well speaking as a user who'd gladly help out with code-fixes for smaller scale stuff, i think it's a great idea. a few of the #friendly-coders would be glad to help out as well. -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
[gentoo-dev] Bye Gentoo!
It's with a bit of sadness but also a bit of relief that I'm finally retiring from Gentoo. I've been a Gentoo developer for nearly 4 years now and I like to at least pretend that I've made some important contributions to Gentoo during that time. I've had a lot of fun but my frustrations have grown these past several months and I've been entertaining the idea about retiring from Gentoo for probably 6 months now. The past couple months the desire to leave Gentoo have become much stronger and I think it's finally time for me and Gentoo to go our separate ways. I think I've put my fingerprint on Gentoo in quite a few important ways but lately I've come to the realization that I probably can't do any more for Gentoo. No matter how hard I try fighting for what I feel is right we seem to end up with petty fights, flamewars or what I consider even worse - people simply ignore what I'm working hard towards. So I think it's high time that I leave the project and start looking for another project where I can contribute something important and not just try to keep afloat in a project that I seem to be at odds with to an ever increasing degree. I'll try to reach all the projects I'm leaving over the next few days and see if I can pass on my work in a reasonable manner. I probably won't be around much on irc but if you really need to contact me you can do so at [EMAIL PROTECTED] Good luck to all of you and may Gentoo development be as much fun for you as it used to be for me.

It might also give people who want to help a simpler target instead of browsing through all open bugs and trying to find one where a user can work on. I think a keyword might be more useful, as at least with my bugs, I'd like to keep them open myself - if the user doesn't provide a patch, it's still something that I'd get around to doing eventually. I specifically want my bugs to stay open, and be easily visible as to why I've kept them open. -- Robin Hugh Johnson Gentoo Linux Developer Council Member E-Mail : [EMAIL PROTECTED] GnuPG FP : 11AC BA4F 4778 E3F6 E4ED F38E B27B 944E 3488 4E85 pgpeYCFfZ3Lza.pgp Description: PGP signature
