Yes, I'm willing to become the official gentoo-ebuild moderator/handler. |

So, from one public mailing list (gentoo-dev) we'll have: |
| 39 |
-dev, -user, -ebuild: 3 |
| 40 |
-system, -desktop, -server, -tools, -infrastructure, -security: 6 |
| 41 |
plus the one-directional -announce and -cvs lists. |
| 42 |
|
| 43 |
So they'll probably be pretty spare to begin with, but that's probably to the |
| 44 |
best. Certainly it will make discussions much more focused. |

BTW, drobbins, what do you think about the propositions made in the |
| 47 |
"maintainership and commit policy" (was: xchat anomalies)? |
