As Daniel stated already, I don't think we will ever get to the point where |
| 8 |
GRP will be discontinued in it's current form. Gentoo's always been about |
| 9 |
choices and always will. |

I'm not in favor of GRP myself, but I've got sufficient feedback to know |
| 12 |
that it's a frequently used aspect of the Gentoo installation. Personally, I |
| 13 |
think that developers disliking GRP should just continue with disliking GRP |
| 14 |
and doing the job(s) they want and keep the GRP development to the developers |
| 15 |
that are interested in the GRP development. |

Sounds easy doesn't it? :) Unless I'm being totally freaky here (which is |
| 18 |
possible as I've drank too much Red Bulls) all this is contained in the |
| 19 |
"choices" keyword. |

Same discussion goes for genkernel too. |
