Really this is enough. You have expressed more of you opinions that |
| 4 |
most so far. Every user has an equal say. Please let others express |
| 5 |
theirs, and stop voicing yours. You have said all you really need to. |

There is no exodus. Gentoo project is not in peril. Neither the |
| 26 |
foundation. Nothing is lost, things just aren't ideal. But can surely be |
| 27 |
corrected and will be ASAP. |

End of conversation. Really it's enough we have responded more than |
| 30 |
necessary and addressed all your points. Before you continue commenting |
| 31 |
on opinion stuff. Please research the facts and history spanning ~1yr or |
| 32 |
more. Less opinions and thoughts. More facts to consider and put on the |
| 33 |
table. |

Thanks |
