[gentoo-dev] Re: Monthly Gentoo Council Reminder for June
Hi, Luca Barbato [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Probably having 2-4 lines about this in the next newsletter could foster awareness. All for it. Will you write it? Having a smarter repoman and bugzilla integration to handle stabilization and keyword bugs automagically would be great but I think would require time (since such bugs could spare the dev some trips around bugzie) I'd like to point to app-portage/gatt again which can automate a lot of your everyday arch work. At least two amd64 arch testers, ranger and myself use it regularly. URL:http://gatt.sourceforge.net/ for details (it is the manual, the examples section has some work-flow snippets).
