There are certainly thought about this. Currently the main blocking factor of |
| 13 |
this is developer time. At the moment the point that still has more priority |
| 14 |
is general QA before we think we are even able to maintain a fixed tree. Of |
| 15 |

not advised for production use, but we hope to help gentoo reach the |

enterprise too. |
