Really? According to who?

We only just had the userrel + sunrise meeting where the people behind
Project Sunrise said they would continue the project as an unofficial
project.

Even if they have changed their minds about this, I think it is too
early to re-evaluate the project for inclusion.

the entire point of these threads is to address developer concerns to that 
sunrise can be folded back into Gentoo

I have no problem with Project Sunrise being an unofficial project,
which is why I haven't responded to those mails.

No, brix is certainly not happy with a overlay like sunrise in any
official capacity. This should be clear from the meeting [1] that was
held between sunrise (jokey and genstef), userrel (represented by
christel), brix and myself.

Instead brix suggested a different solution to the problem, namely a
"proxy maintainer" project that everybody seemed to be happy about at
the meeting. However, while brix sees the proxy maintainer project as a
replacement for the current sunrise project jokey and genstef sees it as
a welcome addition.

In any case it's not true that everybody is happy with sunrise yet.

Bryan Østergaard

the project was suspended because developers were severely unhappy with it

the issues are whether said developers feel all of their grievances have been 
addressed ... so far it would appear so

debating whether the project has/is will accomplish things is out of scope/off 
topic

Nor was I trying to in any way.  Instead, I don't see any point in
discussing something that still needs time to mature.  The project
hasn't been around long enough to accomplish anything, so again, what is
there to discuss?

why do any of these matter at this point of time ?  you cant kill a project 
for failing to accomplish any of its goals when it hasnt been given real time 
yet to actually accomplish them

What exactly is there to "discuss" about this?  It is not an official
project anymore, so the council really has no bearing on it.  I'm
guessing you would like for it to become an official project.  If I were
asked, some of the things I would bring up are:

What has the existence of Sunrise done for Gentoo?  What new packages
are now in the tree because of it?  What new developers have been
recruited because of it?  What packages that were previously without
maintainers in the tree have found maintainers due to Sunrise?

I think you fail to see that for something like Sunrise to prove itself
as a viable Gentoo project, it has to actually accomplish some of its
stated goals.

That being said, if the council wants to discuss it, they're more than
welcome to.  I just personally feel it wouldn't be time well spent.

Hi,

Can we have another Sunrise discussion please? I would love to have some
feedback about Sunrise, about our progress and where we are still lacking.

Thanks,
Stefan
