No, it is not an option. Masking current stable because it is broken was |
| 9 |
not successful also(i heard, that this was usual practice earlier). |

Please, let's not reinvent the wheel around evident problem: lack of |
| 11 |
manpower. |

Easing stabilization procedure makes stable more, well, unstable. |
| 14 |
Bringing some workarounds like this brokes consistency of keywording. |
| 15 |
Keywords are things, that chosen by user. Overlays maintains keywords |
| 16 |
lists, yeah, but that can be reasonable only on vast amount of |
| 17 |
packages(like KDE). |

As i said earlier, we should recruit more people -> then problem will go |
| 20 |
away. Both for security(that have a VAST amount of work, that i am |
| 21 |
saying as a rookie security developer :-)) and arch teams. |
