Thanks for your reply, |

I have enjoyed using Gentoo for many projects over the years, I've also been |
| 6 |
very impressed with all of the releng projects. Even more so with |
| 7 |
gentoo-installer. |

What I thought was a simple request for spec files seems to have turned into |
| 10 |
|
| 11 |
a nightmare. I had Andrew kick me out of "gentoo-installer" for even |
| 12 |
bringing it up. |
| 13 |
|
| 14 |
To make matters worst my ideas are not far off of the relengs goals, and |
| 15 |
that's really to promote Gentoo and to have an install method that is less |
| 16 |
tedious. |
| 17 |
|
| 18 |
So now I'm stuck, I honestly would love to use Gentoo and Catalyst along |
| 19 |
with Gentoo-Installer in my project, but how can I if Gentoo is unwilling |
| 20 |
pass on information that will allow me to achieve my goals? |
