Why is Arfrever being treated so bad here? To me, it looks like |

you're the one who is difficult to work with. :\ |

What kind of silly groupthink is this? I expect Gentoo to champion choice. |

Arfrever is active in the bug you linked, has provided explanations |
21 |
for the patches and prepared to restructure the patches so that they |
22 |
can be gated by local USE flags, has made several different concrete |
23 |
suggestions for possible implementations and requested feedback, but |
24 |
has received no reply in the bug and instead there's now this |
25 |
backstabbing discussion on this list. |
