I am talking as a developer not as a council member. I am not sure who |
| 29 |
others are since it is only you,me and Jorge that participate in this |
| 30 |
thread. However, I accept that the majority of devs may be happy (I |
| 31 |
always take silence as a way to say "blah blah blah > /dev/null) to keep |
| 32 |
around ebuild versions from 2010 until exotic-arch-#14 stabilizes it. |
