That's got nothing to do with it, and it's rude of you to make this about Canek, IMO. |

It's YOU who wants things differently from the planned roadmap, so why shouldn't YOU code the features? |

There have been a couple of posts in this thread, I don't recall who made them, who talked of the "1% of users forcing this change on the other 99%". This is an exceedingly disingenuous argument - it's the Gentoo users, the objectors, who are the 1%. 99% of users won't even notice this, because they're using binary distros. |

My inclination is to agree with you. I detest initramfs, but I don't significantly partition my disks, so I'm unaffected. But if you care you'd better stop whining and get coding. |

It's inexcusable of you to try and turn the problem around and question Canek's contributions to OSS if you're unprepared to make any yourself. |
