I'm sorry, but discussing such stuff affecting pretty much everyone who |
17 |
writes ebuilds among a couple of people simply isn't enough to make this a |
18 |
policy. And then silently applying this and starting to scream "QA |
19 |
violation, look, what a nasty QA violation!!!" is plain ridiculous. |

Punting every single piece of broken sh*t from the tree requires notifying |
22 |
everyone on -dev ml and allowing a period of time before it's actually done, |
23 |
so silently changing/stating policies is a very broken practice. |
