Forum is up, but Gentoo Wiki is down. |

I've been with Gentoo for over 6-years and have seen better times. |
| 32 |
|
| 33 |
Some updates are not up to standards (as they used to be in the past). example only: |
| 34 |
current upgrading postgresql from 8.0 to 8.1 there is no pointer to documentation how to upgrade safely. |
| 35 |
In the past such an upgrade would follow link to documentation "step-by-step" what to do with explanation. |
| 36 |
|
| 37 |
I've seen better times when D.Robbins was aboard. |
| 38 |

We used to get a weekly newsletter; it was downgraded to monthly and now we are not getting it at all. |
| 40 |
So over 300 developers has a little meaning. |
