Er massive feedback about what exactly? The point of this list is to discuss |
19 |
non-technical aspects of development. Can't we just do that without a |
20 |
massive survey? |

Why not just do a massive campaign to inform users of the list and ask them |
33 |
to post here if they have any concerns about the direction gentoo is |
34 |
taking, how they contribute and whatever else is on their minds (so long as |
35 |
it's not support!) Although to be honest, how to get involved is already |
36 |
covered on the forums: |

..and this list will hopefully be a good place for all the non-code stuff. |

Bugzilla is your friend, and don't forget #gentoo-dev-help, #bash and |
42 |
#friendly-coders on irc.freenode.org :-) |
