Yes because openrc isn't really gentoo-specific. I don't want the list |

blowing out to include ever package in the entire tree. ie. Thanking gcc for |

contributing to gentoo. |

Note this doesn't mean that openrc won't be on the list. I think that in this |
10 |
case the dev has worked closely enough with gentoo to deserve acknowledgment. |
11 |
(being a former dev might have helped that :) ) |

Maybe it will be in a "Non-Gentoo specific" section of the list, or something. |
14 |
My point at the moment is to distinguish it from something like |
15 |
pkgcore/paludis which were developed with gentoo firmly as the target platform. |

Well i'm more interested in what is being developed verses what were |
24 |
developed. But that is an interesting possibility, not surprising but |
25 |
interesting none the less. |
