Please, not another local USE flag, we already have >300 of them, it's |
| 8 |
becoming unmanagable. I'd be very happy if we actually could _reduce_ |
| 9 |
the number of local USE flags (of course without removing choice or |
| 10 |
introducing a lot of other env variables). |

So my request for package maintainers is: Please, before you introduce a |
| 12 |
local flag to a package, double check that there really isn't an |
| 13 |
existing flag that you could use. If you think that your flag could be |
| 14 |
combined with another one, please do so. |

In the beginning, there was nothing. And God said, 'Let there be |

Light.' And there was still nothing, but you could see a bit better. |
