24 > - let the devs sort out the todo as the current work flow seems
25 > to be getting things done finally
26 > splitting gentoo-dev mailing lists:
27 > - no real favorable backing for this

29 > will just move the crap else where, not really solving anything

32 > - doesnt seem to be real backing for this from dev community or
33 > the council itself

46 > from now on to see if we're meeting many of users' desires
47 > new metastructure proposal:
48 > - doesnt seem to address any of the problems it proposes to
