Let's not make this yet another git migration discussion. Sufficient to |
21 |
say, that it is not trivial to implement in Gentoo since we have to |
22 |
migrate history, tools (not just end-user tools, this is also about |
23 |
infra) and a lot of other stuff without breaking everything. |
24 |
|
25 |
Also: A lot of gentoo projects have an overlay on github or similar |
26 |
where they accept pull requests already. Including sunrise. |

There is a lot of room for improvement in the political aspects of |
35 |
gentoo. In order to change it, you have to get more involved. |

I think the dev ML is not the right place to ask for a mentor, you |
51 |
actually have to _find_ one. Discuss on IRC, help out on bugzie, send |
52 |
pull requests to official gentoo overlays and then you might already |
53 |
know a few devs who work in that area you are intested in. If you are |
54 |
unable to find one, the recruiters will help you with that, just contact |
55 |
them. |
56 |
|
57 |
Also: we approach people ourselves who force us to commit for them every |
58 |
single time. It is annoying, so we want them to become devs ;) |
