WE NEED YOU! We have several non-developer contributors helping out, but it will be very hard to match the productivity Zac has made over these past years. For those that don't already know, I've pushed out a new release today. Portage-2.2.8 has made it to the tree with many bug fixes. Many of which were fixed by contributors Sebastian Luther, Arfrever Frehtes Taifersar Arahesis and Alexander Berntsen. A big "Thank You" to them for helping to fill the gap.=20 There are still more bugs to work on. More to pin down their cause, so please help where you can. It seems for the immediate interim, I have somehow become temporary lead. While I have too many projects on the go to get deep into portage coding work at the moment. I will do what I can. For those that can fix some things, please send patch submittals to the gentoo-portage-dev mail list. There are several of us capable of reviewing the submissions and when ready, merging them. Once we get an indication that new volunteers are no longer coming forward to join. We will elect a new lead. Those interested in joining, please subscribe to the gentoo-portage-dev list and send an email stating what you can offer and any ideas you have to improve portage's code base. --=20 Brian Dolbec --=-MFE8D0tB0n6MvD5fvj3+ Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" Content-Description: This is a digitally signed message part Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.22 (GNU/Linux) iQF8BAABCgBmBQJSykBDXxSAAAAAAC4AKGlzc3Vlci1mcHJAbm90YXRpb25zLm9w ZW5wZ3AuZmlmdGhob3JzZW1hbi5uZXQ4Njg4RkQxQ0M3MUMxQzA0RUFFQTQyMzcy MjE0RDkwQTAxNEYxN0NCAAoJECIU2QoBTxfLJYEH/17KHfLH0q5MOgNRWoj2NN6y l90Am/l3NjX46yokdZOP5s2UmiUoyJdRBcVsHctzdljujRV0A/hFBgkSXuvz8alr kr/7umATJwMVVoCAmGnOqorlKNDqOfDEwV2klms+/5+xS9HzG4KXtnW6JxKnnkYu BEUcBJI5P7HqvfTUaNLZppLlgZoCrxi3q0Iu7k+drLycPDXy7x19ijCaYpO/4fzA otOi03QVtxwQBIgbiNssAu63c6AtigfyUs1DW5xotWUpFjuVaarffq8MQBRYBZlZ oCJBf65shPcuy4UlZBQ1itEH1hByCjxQcF8dTtv+AwZ/Bn6PTUfMYbRHw33Pq8g= =VukT -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --=-MFE8D0tB0n6MvD5fvj3+--
