No, brix is certainly not happy with a overlay like sunrise in any |
28 |
official capacity. This should be clear from the meeting [1] that was |
29 |
held between sunrise (jokey and genstef), userrel (represented by |
30 |
christel), brix and myself. |
31 |
|

Instead brix suggested a different solution to the problem, namely a |
33 |
"proxy maintainer" project that everybody seemed to be happy about at |
34 |
the meeting. However, while brix sees the proxy maintainer project as a |
35 |
replacement for the current sunrise project jokey and genstef sees it as |
36 |
a welcome addition. |

In any case it's not true that everybody is happy with sunrise yet. |
