This sounds very very nice in my ears. I have a few questions though. |
| 15 |
|
| 16 |
Will this work be done on Gentoo or are you planning to use portage |
| 17 |
SuxOS? |

An interesting thought here would be to have some variable set in |
| 20 |
make.conf that if set only lets you install packages from a list of |
| 21 |
trusted apps/version. This would be a very flexible solution. Since it |
| 22 |
lets you have the exact same operating system on your workstation/server |
| 23 |
while having a really secure setup on your server. |

Let us know if you have any problems. |

Otherwise the only thing I have to say, welcome to the Gentoo community! |
