16 Seems that way. Currently there is a lot of work in progress. They are
17 mostly bugfixes, but also some new features (haven't seen the whole

26 They want to follow kde3 tracks. I guess that qualifies for "a new direction".

28 Do you think new overlay is better way to go? I was thinking, that
29 some of our ebuilds would have to be duplicated
30 (qt3 is one of them), but I can see there are benefits from new overlay...

35 As I recall, the reason we're not using bugzilla is, that we don't
36 have full access to it and without it it's kinda crude.

42 That would probably solve our bugzilla issue.
