[gentoo-user] dev-python sub-categories?

[James]

Hello,


So /usr/portage/dev-python is around 1500 packages. Is it time to
create some new categories to reduce this size, or is it ok, in the
"gentoo-way" for everything /python/ to be lumped into dev-python/?


We do not organize things around 'C' like that, so since python is 
ubiquitous in linux now, does it make since to treat /python/ differently
that we do bash or C ?


Or am I miss reading this portage tree organizational wisdom? I understand it
and agree with it for one-off languages, but surely python has passed that 
point?


curiously,
James
