TBH, for clusters I would insert a sentence like |
| 15 |
"If you are administering a cluster of many identical Gentoo machines, please |
| 16 |
see $WIKIPAGE before enabling submission" |
| 17 |
|
| 18 |
and there then have a few more instructions (like how to enable only for one |
| 19 |
machine, and additionally provide us with the cluster size). I guess in this |
| 20 |
case we can add this further step, since whoever is doing that will be both |
| 21 |
invested in Gentoo and able to read docs. |
