According to http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/metastructure/projects.xml |
| 24 |
there is a security subproject under the qa project, but noone assigned |
| 25 |
to it (if the page is up2date). I agree that there should be more people |
| 26 |
on it (same situation as with portage a few weeks ago). |
