5 As one of the CVS administrators, I'm all in favour of getting rid of
6 the large files that really shouldn't be in CVS. Policy (according to
7 the ebuild quiz) is anything larger than 20kb should be in distfiles,
8 but let's just start at the 40kb mark for now.

10 The listing below offers ~5.5Mb of space saving for syncing.
11
12 Candidates for trimming, at least down to the versions that are still in
13 portage.

19 How about plain text versions of these, so they can be read with any
20 special tools, on the CLI? Possibly also a cleanup of licenses should be
21 done, to check if all the licenses are still in use.

24 167056 ./gentoo-x86/licenses/perforce.pdf
25
26 Do these really need to be in the tree? I don't think they do.
27 Why not have portage fetch them via SRC_URI and install under /usr/share/doc ?
