If we were to drop stable I would have to start maintaining my own |
| 10 |
stable lists to determine what would be ready to into production for my |
| 11 |
company. In production "works most of the time" and "good enough" |
| 12 |
simply aren't good enough. |

I estimate that would at least equal the amount of time I'm currently |
| 15 |
spending on Gentoo work, and consequently my contributions to Gentoo |
| 16 |
would dwindle to a halt. Most likely I would start looking at other |
| 17 |
solutions altogether. |

Except that some of that routine work is actually what I enjoy doing in |
| 22 |
Gentoo. I already get plenty of the other two in my day job. |
