1 It is pretty clear to me that binary distribution is not in the
2 cards from the maintainers of Gentoo. It's a hard enough job
3 just managing the ebuilds.
4
5 It's also a pretty clear violation of the definition of Gentoo,
6 "ports-based." I think it was Dylan Carson who used the phrase
7 "out of scope." I like that.

9 It's also pretty clear that some people think it's a good idea,
10 or at least an idea worth discussing. I think that's great.
11 So why don't you discuss and implement? And not here, in a
12 place dedicated to it. I mean if you can't get MLM infrastructure
13 in place, you might as well give up on the idea of a linux
14 distribution.
