23 I can understand this. I was hoping for at least some feedback which I got specifically with http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=18281 which I know is a mess but I have not better clue on how to sort it out. I have had some responce on it already which is all I wanted so I can start working on fixing it again with some help.

29 I'm going to. I'm not very good at writing stuff from scratch (as you can see from nvsdk ebuild) but I'm pretty good at finding bugs and fixing other peoples work, so I'll keep doing that.
