Well, this is the problem. I like it too, and I too don't like the |
| 2 |
current stituation. Currently genlop is abandonware. There is no |
| 3 |
activity in Bugzilla, so that's why I post to gentoo-dev. |

Portage Utilities Team, Hello ? |

|

If we all like it that much, perhaps someone will want to take over it, |
| 8 |
make a homepage ( or just set www.gentoo.org as the homepage ) and go |
| 9 |
through the open bugs. |

If not - it can be either dropped or left as it is currently. If no one |
| 12 |
cares maybe the user base is not that large. |

|
| 14 |
In either case, it would be interesting to know what is the Portage |
| 15 |
Utilities Team view on the matter. |
