6 From the context, I understood "here" /not/ to mean Gentoo. FYI, while
7 it's tempting to make comments paralleling various wider world political
8 happenings, it's generally not wanted on this list, lest even /more
9 arguments start, with these being /entirely/ off topic.

11 So please do steer clear of such parallels in the future. If you have
12 something about Gentoo to add to the conversation, fine (tho do remember
13 it's a Gentoo dev list and those of us who are not Gentoo devs are
14 guests), just keep the comments Gentoo related and don't stray
15 elsewhere, /particularly/ politics (or religion... etc), even if it's as
16 parallels or analogies.
