Unfortunately. A few simple scripts could be made to shorten the required |
| 5 |
amount of manual conversions; at the least, it would be nothing like |
| 6 |
segregating the KDE ebuilds again. If all else fails, I'm certain that we |

could enslave ferringb and assign him to the task. |

"NGSCB" is perfectly clear to many Microsoft employees and those with an |
| 15 |
obfuscation shredder-- it may not be so clear to end users, news reporters |
| 16 |
and potential critics. Likewise, having a category named as a single letter, |
| 17 |
for example, might be perfectly clear to the developers and developer |
| 18 |
community members, but it would be obscure to everyone else. |
