He's not leading it. He's writing parts of it under my lead, despite |
11 |
the fact that he's probably better qualified technically than I am to |
12 |
lead it. |

Nope. He's documenting the existing situation for package manager |
20 |
interoperability. Wherever PMS goes against existing practise it's been |
21 |
discussed either on -dev or with the portage developers past and |
22 |
present. Again, he's not influencing future direction this way. |
