No, but because of the quantity of commits[1] as a result of maintaining |
| 16 |
subset of issues tree wide at once (like libpng, jpeg, libnotify, *kit, |
| 17 |
u{disks,power}, lcms, fixing missing includes due to toolchain changes, |
| 18 |
adding some consts, imagine the rest ...) |

... the time alone if you have to stop on each package to wait for |
| 21 |
echangelog to get done just doubles the amount of time you have to put |
| 22 |
into committing them. That's just not worth the effort. |

from sources.gentoo.org, they take your time as well. |
