Please see [1] for the proposal of betagarden overlay, which might |
| 11 |
grab attention by posting a project page, @sping *plz* |

Maybe betagarden/sunrise would benefit from mirror-coverage, |
| 22 |
hosting situation is a recurring question on #-sunrise. Votes? |
| 23 |
|
| 24 |
Sunrise commit access is limited to sunrise devs. And I see the _rise_ |
| 25 |
in context of software and devs. |
| 26 |
I don't say sundown, cause for mentioned arguments, I just wanna have |
| 27 |
functioning/maybe superseeded software around, regardless of it's |
| 28 |
commit-frequency, author involvement or century of creation. |
| 29 |
|
| 30 |
Again: We need to proceed as a contemporary distribution ("Does not |
| 31 |
build with latest ~** gcc/" argument), but we can preserve our trail |
| 32 |
for those who like. |
| 33 |
|
| 34 |
The line between removed packages and obsoleted slots has to be drawn. |
| 35 |
|
| 36 |
I'm in a tension between overlay scatter and providing an automated |
| 37 |
time capsule (that certainly will mess up any of the aforementioned |
| 38 |
repos). |
