I'm not that enthusiastic. It's up to the Gentoo masters if they |
| 5 |
would find it helpful to the community or not. |

I don't think that's exactly the case, but I gave my opinion, whether |
| 12 |
I blame or not, or whether the existing pathways are good as they are |
| 13 |
or not, and would stand for the next coming years. |

I'm merely giving ideas and joining the discussion, which is enough |
| 21 |
for its purpose. Proving it is another thing. |
| 22 |
|
| 23 |
Besides with current Gentoo community philosophy, it may not be worth |
| 24 |
it, and is unlikely to happen. Most people doubt innovate ideas |
| 25 |
before actually trying to help figure out how to make it work. I've |
| 26 |
seen a lot of discussions like this and nothing has really happened. |
| 27 |
I'm not really expecting anything to come out out of it. It's not |
| 28 |
worth the risk to waste my time and effort. And don't tell me nothing |
| 29 |
happened because the one who made the suggestions did nothing. The |
| 30 |
people in control need to do their part as well. |
| 31 |
|
| 32 |
And people always say, "This is an open-source project. Nothing's |
| 33 |
stopping you from proving it. (Go ahead, take the risk.)". Yeah |
| 34 |
right. |
| 35 |
|
| 36 |
If people actually take my ideas seriously, or do anything similar to |
| 37 |
it, then I might actually decide to help (in some ways besides coding |
| 38 |
because I'm not in the mood to take another serious project yet, and I |
| 39 |
also don't want to take a role with responsibility, or anything that |
| 40 |
could leave people hanging; maybe I could be an independent beta |
| 41 |
tester, check some issues from time to time; give some suggestions |
| 42 |
when I want to; just not anything with explicit collaboration), but |
| 43 |
whether I help or not, I already did my part. |
| 44 |
|
| 45 |
I've said enough for this thread, and things are not becoming |
| 46 |
fruitful, as expected. I'm out. |
