I looked deep into myself and found that possibly it is fear that drives |
| 9 |
this thread. Am I not the only one with the impresion that for the last 10 |
| 10 |
years or so good things in computing are routinely fading out or being |
| 11 |
eaten by mediocre, if not plain stupid, "alternatives"? |

This makes me think about another side of the problem. As stated by the |
| 14 |
official site, <<"Gentoo" is many things. It is a community-based |
| 15 |
distribution of Linux. It is a package management philosophy. It is also a |
| 16 |
non-profit organization.>> |

Is the non-profit organization side of Gentoo healthy? My brief Google |
| 19 |
session does not reveal anything that suggests it is not, but if somebody |
| 20 |
can and may comment on this, please do so. |
