Mark, I think you are looking at the problem only with the ebuild |
| 9 |
maintainer hat put on. We have other players in our business, being one |
| 10 |
of them the users. This policy would bring too many problems to them so |
| 11 |
.. nono by my side. |

I would prefer to analyze the causes of the slacker arch (manpower, |
| 14 |
hardware, etc) and if we are not able to solve the problem by any way |
| 15 |
(asking for new devs, buying hardware, etc) go for mark it as |
| 16 |
experimental and drop all stable keywords. |
