Here, I would agree with if you have a lot of other things to do; I |
12 |
don't see this as a problem though for someone whom puts time apart to |
13 |
do such a fork, keeping track is as easy as following two git logs. |
14 |
Granted, understanding and implementing the changes is another story, |
15 |
in which I again agree with you; I just wanted to point out they're not |
16 |
hidden, they're just not announced, but it appears we agree on that. |

There is indeed an URL brought up early on, with which I agree with: |

There's also a more recent post that I think hasn't been brought up: |

Well, I wish I could accomplish all these things; but I have other work |
34 |
that I'm committing myself to, I've been thinking about a proof of |
35 |
concept to point out it is possible but I haven't had the time to do it. |

My past commits were spent on bringing MATE to the Portage tree; if I |
38 |
would work on a logind implementation, there wouldn't be MATE. |
