I don't know. Currently I'm working on my own effort on a portage rewrite. It |
| 13 |
should follow most of the ideas that have been floating around for ng, but I |
| 14 |
cannot give any time on delivery of a useable system. The only thing that I |
| 15 |
have really working well now is searching (emerge -s) which is a lot faster. |
| 16 |
Further I've developed an ebuild parser in c++ which still has issues. If |
| 17 |
there is a lot of interest I might put it in gentoo cvs or release a tarbal. |
| 18 |
However as I'm going away in 8 days I think that will happen only in a month. |
