15 Excellent - this is exciting to hear
16
17 On the other hand since there still isn't a masked ebuild in portage
18 (and I seem some notes on my on Roy's site) then I have to assume that
19 in fact we are still a good way away from calling it a replacement and
20 starting to push it out to users?
21
22 Would it not make sense to start to snapshot some builds and push openrc
23 out for testing? (Seems like a gentoo job rather than an upstream is
24 the reason I ask here?)

26 Cheers
