I think they can be useful for any application as long as they're |
| 7 |
maintained. I can see the value of the QA policy that they must be |
| 8 |
masked, but I don't see value in forcing them out of the tree. I |
| 9 |
think the key is that we want the tree to work - if it works then it |
| 10 |
belongs. The ability to seamlessly support live builds is one of |
| 11 |
Gentoo's distinctive features - since we're already a bit of a niche |
| 12 |
we should embrace this. |
