7 I was just thinking this myself. Are there any users still using Gentoo
8 Linux 1.4 or 2004.0?

10 Certainly the cobalt-mips-1.4 and cobalt-mips-2004.1 profiles can go...
11 the 2004.2 release for Cobalt machines has been around quite a while
12 now, and just about everyone (that I know of) has moved up to at least
13 2004.2, and has probably upgraded from there.
14 (In any case... new 2005.0 images for Gentoo Linux/MIPS Cobalt are on
15 the way)

17 I'd certainly welcome a cleanup here... clean out the dead wood. ;-)
