Originally, Gentoo was effectively a meritocracy. It's now, in some |
| 5 |
respects, a republic. If you want a democracy, feel free to draft a new |
| 6 |
"metastructure" proposal (feel free to name it something less awkward), |
| 7 |
and drum up support to get it voted upon. |

For what it's worth, the Council does neither of those things. That's |
| 13 |
what the Gentoo Foundation is for. |

Do you have some specific examples of how you've seen the Council |
| 19 |
stifle Gentoo, or is it mainly just a general impression? |
