I agree with Andrew, we don't need or want to clutter up the GWN. The last rites |
| 18 |
section is for full package removals and at this time we will refrain from the |
| 19 |
inclusion of slots/version removals. |

I encourage everyone to please think about this from a different perspective. |

With every change made to the GWN there are repercussions that the GWN staff |
| 23 |
faces. It would be greatly appreciated if discussions to change the GWN include |
| 24 |
the GWN team. We are responsive to GWN-feedback emails as well as channel |
| 25 |
inquiries in #gentoo-gwn. |
