The constant political bickering needs to stop. This is a development list and should be focused on development-related and technical discussions. As an example, things that need to be discussed with/about the Council can go to the gentoo-council mailing list. Topics to be discussed with/about the Trustees or the Foundation should go to gentoo-nfp. I think we all should do our part in asking people to keep things on topic, and for discussions to move to the proper lists. If it isn't about development, it doesn't belong here. -- Chris Gianelloni Release Engineering Strategic Lead Alpha/AMD64/x86 Architecture Teams Games Developer/Council Member/Foundation Trustee Gentoo Foundation
