1 I run several production servers on Hardened Gentoo, and have a concern.

3 The perl team has been awesome. I really love that packages are fairly
4 fresh compared to what is in cpan. However, there is one very important
5 package that's been ignored for far too long: SpamAssassin

9 Why has it been waiting for a mips keyword for almost two years? No
10 reply from mips. Pinging the bug has no effect, as seen with comments
11 #5-#8. Is the package abandoned? Is there some political issue with
12 Gentoo that keeps abandoned packages from being reassigned? I would love
13 to offer my help, but lately those offers have been flat rejected by
14 Gentoo devs. I guess my lips don't pucker well enough. I would like to
15 have this package dealt with. There are some important bug fixes in
16 newer releases.
