8 no, that's not it. let me explain.

10 gentoo is indeed dead. specifically, gentoo's
11 death happened some time in 2007.
12
13 then, in the 2nd of march 2008, gentoo became
14 undead [1].
15
16 it's very difficult to kill undeads (try it in
17 dark souls). technically they are dead already.
18
19 but i think i know how to finally free gentoo from
20 the undead realm and let it finally rest in peace.
21 here is how:
22
23 * something better than gentoo should come.
24 e.g. something source-based and
25 comprehensive.
26
27 so far, there is no better solution than gentoo
28 for the requirements that gentoo satisfies.
29 therefore, gentoo cannot be freed from the
30 "undread" realm to finally rest in peace.
31
32 if you want to set gentoo free, please tell us 1
33 source-based distro that is as comprehensive as
34 gentoo (or more). then we cen celebrate gentoo's
35 freedom from the undead realm right now.
