12 Is there some reason these need to be posted on -core? If -core is only
13 for sensitive matters that shouldn't be made public then why post stuff
14 there that is going to be put on the gentoo front page?

16 There are a lot of people involved gentoo who aren't devs that still
17 have a vested interest in what is going on and who help out in various
18 ways. Obviously not everybody needs to know everything, but ideally if
19 something isn't otherwise fairly sensitive it probably should be out in
20 the open. Actually, I'm not really sure what kinds of things are
21 insensitive enough to be broadcasted to hundreds of devs, but too
22 sensitive to broadcast to thousands of users. Maybe in cases where a
23 security bug is going to have some wide-spread effect on the entire
24 distro that needs to be coordinated or something like that. If it some
25 kind of personal issue it probably shouldn't even go on -core...
