True, it's fundamentally impossible for Gentoo to get rid of all the |
| 16 |
problems with ebuilds. |

What I offer is to make the response and self-assessment on Gentoo |
| 19 |
changes automated and fast. Then it will be getting better by itself. |
| 20 |
The rate of experience Dev is attaining will jump several times up and |
| 21 |
the level drudgery will decrease in the same proportion. |

And it's perfectly in Gentoo style. This is the fastest penguin, |
| 24 |
erroneously married to a snake because the marriage looked easy from |
| 25 |
the first but now it's getting harder and harder. |
| 26 |

We have the Penguin but forgot to add neurons to his skin. |
| 28 |
|
| 29 |
He is poked but doesn't know about that and doesn't respond |
| 30 |
because he can't feel. |
