I'm not suggesting that we get rid of options - only that we have |
| 7 |
simplified ones for those who don't need them. You can get all the |

benefits of Gentoo without tweaking every other kernel parameter. |

That's no different from having a desktop profile/etc. The value of |
| 11 |
Gentoo is the /ability/ to tweak anything and everything, not the |
| 12 |
/necessity/ to do so. We already offer genkernel - why not a package |
| 13 |
that basically runs it with a more comprehensive configuration and |
| 14 |
installs the kernel? |
