I am out of date with the current state of the foundation with being |
15 |
mostly away from Gentoo for nearly a year. But I do know they had |
16 |
troubles and the financials have been behind. I do know that Robin has |
17 |
been working hard to get the finacials caught up. So a big Thank You |
18 |
to him for that effort. |
