32 After re-reading all the thread again:
33 https://lists.gt.net/gentoo/dev/327773/?page=1;mh=-1;
34
35 I think there is no point in continuing replying forever to this thread as I
36 think all the technical issues has now being, at least, clarified and forwarded
37 to the right people. As I have understood most of them belong to Portage team
38 and now that the bug reports with the concrete suggestions were filled, they
39 will be able to deal with them (either working on implementing the desired
40 changes or either declining to do that if they have other opinions based on the
41 way portage is supposed to be used by us).
42
43 Then, can we please switch to different and more productive things to do? :)

45 Thanks a lot!
