At this rate it will take roughly 30 days to have all packages ported to ModX. spyderous wants it tomorrow, HalycOn wants it when all is ported. A (perhaps overly) simple solution is to split the difference. In 15 days ModX goes ~arch. 8 February -Lares --=20 Lares Moreau <lares.moreau@gmail.com> | LRU: 400755 http://counter.li.org lares/irc.freenode.net | Gentoo x86 Arch Tester | ::0 Alberta, Canada Public Key: 0D46BB6E @ subkeys.pgp.net | Encrypted Mail Preferred Key fingerprint =3D 0CA3 E40D F897 7709 3628 C5D4 7D94 483E 0D46 BB6E --=-4AX5xXjOtfrbuO1CT7e+ Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name=signature.asc Content-Description: This is a digitally signed message part -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.2 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQBD1nNIfZRIPg1Gu24RAjRqAJ9NKJb6QvQCbCd/aylDphTPlmJuVgCcCuFt OkCDQEFPziV660WU1yV9F7U= =6qWo -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --=-4AX5xXjOtfrbuO1CT7e+-- -- gentoo-dev@gentoo.org mailing list
