Some problems are better discussed in a real-time fashion, and you (the |
| 22 |
Gentoo developers) have already said that you are open to voicing people |
| 23 |
who can make a request politely. |

I know that we all are volunteers and I really appreciate your work. It |
| 30 |
wasn't my intention to be rude at all, I just wanted to point out that |
| 31 |
if a *single* person states that he would be an official |
| 32 |
point-of-contact, it won't be very usefull as I can't imagine anyone |
| 33 |
being on IRC all the time. And if the person who wishes to ask isn't |
| 34 |
voiced in, let's say, less than hour, he can send a mail to -dev ML as well. |

I'm sorry if you considered my previous reply impolite, I'm not a native |
| 37 |
English speaker :-). |
