That's why I said "if the discussion on this doesn't get conclusive". Of |
| 10 |
course it's much better to have a consensus about that, but in some |
| 11 |
important cases a tie-breaker can be useful. |

We already have an opt-in (hardened profile), and of course it can be |
| 16 |
implemented in a way which allows opt-out (I even mentioned that). |
| 17 |
|
| 18 |
The main point is changing the default. |

Another note: "quiet build" default was a part of Council meeting agenda |
| 21 |
(<http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/council/meeting-logs/20111213-summary.txt>), |
| 22 |
so it shouldn't be too surprising that a default important for security |
| 23 |
is also suggested. |

Again - only if we don't get a consensus here. |
