Nothing to be sorry about, you really raised a valid point as is that |
| 27 |
our teams deprecation policies may not be the clearest out there. And as |
| 28 |
a user you deserved an explanation. I'd really hope all the projects |
| 29 |
(and not only in Gentoo) tried to justify their decisions when somebody |
| 30 |
couldn't understand them. |
