Won't work. First it would introduce a single point of failure. If we'd |
| 17 |
really follow this route there has to be a role for this, not a user. |
| 18 |
Then how are people supposed to know about this in teh first place? I |
| 19 |
wouldn't expect that users with a question/topic for -dev have read the |
| 20 |
dev handbook. Often that is spontaneous, which brings me to my next |
| 21 |
point: email definitely won't work for this, I mean if someone writes |
| 22 |
an email they can just as well ask their question on the gentoo-dev |
| 23 |
list directly. |
| 24 |
And finally: I really don't like the idea of telling people "ask Chris |
| 25 |
for voice, other devs might not behave nice", if there really is a |
| 26 |
problem this will just sidestep it, not solve it. |

In the beginning, there was nothing. And God said, 'Let there be |
| 34 |
Light.' And there was still nothing, but you could see a bit better. |
