 [some stuff]

I just ran into recently with some latex stuff and you really were
very helpful and showed a lot of patience - thanks a lot for that and
all the other work you did for Gentoo.
Sorry to see you go.

cheers,
Wernfried

Hi Alexandre,

Good luck in your new life.  My only comment is that I think you copped
out by not submitting your proposals for any sort of peer review.  You
succumbed to the possibility (that you seem to think is more of a
probability -- you may be right, I don't know) that it would not be
received well.  I think it's a shame to succumb to such a fear (or any
fear), and I wish you hadn't.

I do understand where you're coming from, however, and I tend to agree
with most of your ideas on the addition of bureaucratic layers and rules
 regulations.  I struggle with whether or not that's simply a necessary
by-product of the size and scope (I use the term loosely) of the
project.

Thanks,

Seemant

Hi Alexandre.

I too would like to hear what your ideas are for the metastructure of
gentoo.  Please if you dont feel up to officially submitting them then at
least submit them to this list.

Alistair
