We (Patrick and I) tried to get someone interested in an OpenBSD |
| 15 |
(re)port of Gentoo, but students lots interest. Maksbotan got involved |
| 16 |
but we soon hit deep snags. There were not something we couldn't |
| 17 |
handle, but they were time consuming. For the hell of it, I started |
| 18 |
porting Gentoo to minix a few days ago when 3.2.0 came out. Same story, |
| 19 |
and as soon as the issues got deep, I asked myself, do I have time for |
| 20 |
this?! |
| 21 |
|
| 22 |
Then I asked, who would use this? I'm not sure about the OpenBSD port |
| 23 |
but with Minix there is some possibility because Minix is in need of |
| 24 |
userland. *Shrug* |
