15 The complaints was about the cache, not about the actual sync time
16 This is what, maybe the equivilent of a new ebuild once, and a -rX any
17 time somethings changed? It won't effect much at all and end up being
18 a lot more helpful (and quickly implemented) than waiting around for
19 someone to write a web database and pushing that through.

21 We have metadata.xml's, why not use them?
