Sure, but the original statement was "The recent Council election |
| 16 |
results confirm that Gentoo is interested in shaking things up a |
| 17 |
little." |

It seems to me that at best they only demonstrate that blueness and I |
| 20 |
were interested in shaking things up a little, and even that is |
| 21 |
reaching a bit since motivations could have been personal and not |
| 22 |
related to Gentoo. |

I think the opportunity for change is a good thing, as the last few |
| 25 |
years is about as static as I remember the Gentoo leadership ever |
| 26 |
being since the drobbins days. However, I don't think it necessarily |
| 27 |
reflects any kind of general dissatisfaction. |
