As well sounding and well written the proposals for change were, I do not feel |
| 14 |
Gentoo should necessaraly go the way of Debian to extinctcion. Debian is too |
| 15 |
mired in bureaucracy and way to slow to respond to change. What I like about |
| 16 |
Gentoo is it's responsiveness to change. I can go to bugzilla and request a |
| 17 |
version bump on favorite app or request a new app and usually within two days |
| 18 |
it is included in the distro. I have never seen that with Debian. Debian as |
| 19 |
good as it is, is just to slow out of date and unresponsive, because of the |
| 20 |
excessive bureaucracy most have a I have come in contact with have a |
| 21 |
snobbish, I can not be bothered air about them. Not the most firendly and |
| 22 |
open groups. I have never had that type of air putting on happen to me on a |
| 23 |
Gentoo list, most have gone out of there way to help me, and in the processe |
| 24 |
I have gained valuable knowledge. I am happy with the way Gentoo is run and |
| 25 |
the direction it is going. I feel change is needed only when necessary to |
| 26 |
maintain the distrto's performance. Not change for change sake only. And no |
| 27 |
unnecessary bureaucracy. This is my $.02 worth on the subject. |
