It appears my migration plan was not good enough for Mike Frysinger |
| 32 |
<vapier@g.o> and he went ahead and wrote his own version of the |
| 33 |
OpenRC ebuild, differing from the one in the OpenRC layman repo, and |
| 34 |
committed it to the tree this weekend. |
| 35 |
|
| 36 |
Since my offer to work on the migration was not good enough for him, I'm |
| 37 |
backing out and allowing him to handle the whole migration himself since |
| 38 |
I haven't heard from him at all despite Roy (author of OpenRC) and my |
| 39 |
attempts to contact him for 2 weeks regarding a migration plan for |
| 40 |
OpenRC. All issues and comments can be directed to him. |
| 41 |
|
| 42 |
I guess working together and documenting everything before having it hit |
| 43 |
the tree was a bad plan and it had to be one-upped. |
