Gentoo needs to make intelligent decisions, whether it comes from a |
| 8 |
single individual or an army doesn't matter. A good idea is a good |

idea. |

The main thing that we need to do is keep admitting when we're wrong. |
| 12 |
If we're wrong, admit it and fix it. It really is that simple. Nobody |
| 13 |
expects us to be perfect, but we should still strive for it. At the |
| 14 |
same time, I think sometimes taking action, even the wrong one, is |
| 15 |
better than sitting around postulating endlessly. I would much rather |
| 16 |
see something done, found to be wrong, reverted, and replaced over time |
| 17 |
than nothing be done at all because nobody can agree 100% on the "right" |
| 18 |
way to do it. |
