Re: [gentoo-desktop] [kde-sunset] KDE/Trinity 3.5.12 inside or outside sunset

[Ladislav Laska]

As you may have noticed, there is another thread and some of current
developers have suggested new overlay.

I personally am not really decided what would be best. Addint it to
current overlay does have its benefits - easy update and so on. But
having overlay just for trinity gives better options for new users -
they could install clean trinity, without third-party stuff (well, at
least without unmaintained stuff). I'd imagine there are many tools
noone uses.

Well, I'd go for an overlay, but since we don't have a leader (don't
we?) or some position like that, I feel like I shouldn't make an
decision myself, so should we take a vote or something? :-)
