While you are correct, the current problem isn't lack of low hanging |
| 18 |
fruit to fix in the files dir, as he said there's 700 packages on the |
| 19 |
list already, too many to file individual bugs for. |

| 21 |
So while it is indeed worthwhile to keep in mind the init-scripts |
| 22 |
installed from SRC_URI... |
| 23 |
|
| 24 |
There's seven hundred "miles of open road" to cross before we have to |
| 25 |
worry about that SRC_URI bridge, so maybe worry about that when we're |
| 26 |
within 50 or 100, or even a couple hundred, "miles", not 700. =:^] |
