No, they're controlled by whoever ends up writing code. If you think |
7 |
there's any control over, say, Portage, try getting an important feature |
8 |
request implemented. |

No-one is claiming that Paludis is an official Gentoo project. This |
15 |
discussion, however, is about PMS, not Paludis, and the only reason I |
16 |
can see to keep confusing them is political, so please stop doing that. |

Nor do I define the direction of PMS. The requirements define its |
19 |
direction, and its contributors (the majority of which are Gentoo |
20 |
developers) do the writing. |

Not currently, but then neither does devmanual, so it's hardly unique |
25 |
in that respect. |
