Not at all. But: please do *not* just press the reply button since at least my |
| 15 |
mail client concernes about threaded mails and now I've a thread in another |
| 16 |
thread. |

| 18 |
to bugs.gentoo.org when the need is there. |
| 19 |

| 20 |
developer then? |
| 21 |
Also, I'd be interested in the "definition" of a gentoo developer :) |

Any ideas so far? |
