You may be surprised, but the word "Gentoo" doesn't even occur in the |
| 12 |
main part (chapters 2 to 15) of the PMS document, except for one place |
| 13 |
referring to "Gentoo's Catalyst tool". |

Calling it "Gentoo repository" instead of "Portage tree" is purely a |
| 16 |
matter of distro policy and has nothing to do with PMS. |
