I'm not sure on the history of a non-technical ML itself, but I cooked up the |
| 13 |
idea of gentoo-politics originally, thinking the similarly-themed debian ML was |
| 14 |
debian-politics. After a debian developer pointed out that it was actually A) |
| 15 |
debian-project, and B) He intentionally stays off that list (obviously for good |
| 16 |
reason), I figured the name and non-requirement for developers was most |
| 17 |
appropriate for our needs as well. |

Hence, Bug #181368 was born. |

And apparently, so was "ML Changes". Guess the doctor neglected to mention that |
| 22 |
I was having twins, and that one of them was gonna grow up to be overweight and |
| 23 |
ugly, yet incredibly hot. |

Healthcare really has gone down the drain here in the UDG, hasn't it? (United |

Developers of Gentoo). Anyone care to recruit Moore as a developer? |
