As I requested in an earlier email, I would like it to be discussed how |
| 7 |
we want to handle alternative package managers. The GLEPs both touch on |
| 8 |
the issue, but if neither of those proposals are liked, then we are |
| 9 |
still left not knowing what to do. |

Here is my original email: |

As I said in my email, I want there to be a discussion (and hopefully a |
| 15 |
decision) as to whether or not adding these packages to *our* tree is |
| 16 |
best for us and our users. In my opinion, it seems to make the most |
| 17 |
sense for alternative package managers to be hosted on their own |
| 18 |
infrastructure so they are free to introduce new features and write |
| 19 |
ebuilds to take advantage of those features. |

| 21 |
If it is required for me to be present at the meeting to discuss this (I |
| 22 |
don't believe I have to be), then could whoever does the scheduling get |
| 23 |
in touch with me, because it will be difficult for me to be here during |
| 24 |
the day since I just started a new job. |

Thanks, |
