10 Or maybe he means the "Gentoo developers" are an elite group of flawless
11 people, blessed by the mighty ebuild quizz ? That elitism would in the
12 end kill us, and I thank the Sunrise project for opening up Gentoo a
13 little more to the community. We may have to lose a few elitist fellows
14 in the process, but I still stand by the Council decision that it was
15 the right thing to do.

17 I just can't see how an ebuild directly committed without peer review to
18 the tree is necessary better than an ebuild contributed by a power user
19 and peer-reviewed by a Gentoo developer, ending up in a repository you
20 have to choose to use...
