If this were his first time coming back, might consider handing him the
reins again. But this time IMHO it needs to be earned a little bit. I
think many that were around last time he came and left. Have a bit of a
bitter taste in their mouth from all that.

I supported the let's give Daniel some respect as the creator when he
came back last. Look in -dev archive, distro watch article, etc. Just to
get it thrown back in my face when Daniel resigned a few days after
becoming a dev again. :(

And oh by the way, the foundation was in the same shape then. So if he
cares so much. He could have just focused on the foundation as a dev,
verses resigning and making this offer months later.

Much less, if things were done right when he left the first time. The
foundation would be in great shape then and now. So after 2 chances
already, we should be quick to issue a 3rd with full power? What will be
done differently this time?

Daniels contributions will be welcomed as all's are. But at min we will
expect of him what we expect from all devs or contributors. Some level
of long term commitment to Gentoo. Coming and going does nothing for
anyone.
