Donnie, |

I have been a Gentoo dev for 10 years, almost as long as you have, and I |
| 10 |
agree with your post. |

Over the years, I have seen this distro go from being the distro that |
| 13 |
was ahead of the curve, always innovating and embracing new tech, to a |
| 14 |
distro that is stagnating. |

|

I also keep hearing that Gentoo is a meta distribution and Gentoo is |
| 17 |
about choice. Well, the issue is that we can't be all things to all |
| 18 |
people, and that is what we have been attempting to be for the last few |
| 19 |
years now. |

I agree that we need to find a focus for Gentoo, and I like your use |
| 22 |
cases. |

What do others think? |
