[gentoo-dev] Keep Sunrise... But not Here

[Michael Crute]

Sorry to start yet another thread on this but all the others seem to
have just turned into a shouting match among developers... and sorry
if this has already been covered.

It seems that the most logical solution to the Sunrise "problem" is to
separate it from Gentoo... I know that there are other overlays out
there... why not simply make the Sunrise people use their own
infrastructure and support their project outside of Gentoo? I know of
a few websites that are far better qualified for space on Gentoo
infrastructure than Sunrise (gentoo-portage.com, gentoo-wiki.com). If
Sunrise becomes a wild success then I would take it back to the
council for re-inclusion into the Gentoo core, if it bombs nobody gets
hurt and it stops the shouting on the lists.

I think the council should temporarily block the project until it can
prove that it will stand on its own. Just as we expect developers to
prove their abilities before they join Gentoo, we should do the same
thing for projects like this.

Thoughts anyone?

-Mike
