Grant's point (if I read it correctly) was that you were effectively |
| 6 |
using LO, just with OOo branding, because the Go-Oo patches were |
| 7 |
already being applied. In short, no functional distinction. So why |
| 8 |
care now, when nothing's really changed? |

Except that, on Gentoo, they effectively already had, without |
| 13 |
realizing it. Sure, OOo and LO may take different paths going forward, |
| 14 |
but, on Gentoo, they were already largely equivalent in deviation from |
| 15 |
OOo upstream. |

Perhaps what you want to do is ask that someone *add* and maintain an |
| 18 |
"authentic" OOo ebuild? |

(If there was demand for an authentic OOo ebuild, why wasn't there one already?) |
