Your help on Portage development is certainly appreciated. And I am |
| 10 |
happy to hear that the bus factor of the portage project will go up a |
| 11 |
bit (it is too close to 1 at the moment). |

I suggest we all try to keep history and politics a bit out of the |
| 22 |
discussion. Meaning your contributions are very much appreciated. But I |
| 23 |
think that currently is not the right time for discussing some special |
| 24 |
council/developer status (or similar). |
| 25 |

I think it will certainly help if we all (meaning the developer |
| 27 |
community and you) get a bit acquainted to each other. Some targeted, |
| 28 |
project related work and contributions from you are a perfect |
| 29 |
opportunity for that. I suggest we spend a couple of months on that |
| 30 |
first and touch bases again in spring next year about becoming a |
| 31 |
(regular) developer again. |
| 32 |

For future posts, what about we relocate development updates on Portage |
| 34 |
to gentoo-dev? (We're working on whitelists for contributors.) I am |
| 35 |
certainly interested in getting a bit of details about Portage |
| 36 |
development - further, input from our PMS team and other package |
| 37 |
managers might be a good idea. |
