Well, it's the only thing that would have one. So what would qualify |
| 7 |
PMS for that unique status, when things like USE deps, a GLEP 42 |
| 8 |
implementation, the www redesign, GLEP 37 and GLEP 23 don't get it? |

The only explanation I can think of is that the Council considers |
| 11 |
replacing Portage as soon as possible to be vitally important. If |
| 12 |
there's a different explanation, I'd like to hear it. If that really is |
| 13 |
the explanation, I'd like to hear what the Council considers Portage's |
| 14 |
failings to be. |

It's also worth noting that having a deadline doesn't affect when |
| 17 |
it will be ready. Having good reasons for prioritising it, however, |
| 18 |
does. |
