Specifically: 1. Clean out directories with multiple, older versions of ebuilds. 2. Consolidate portages which are replicated in multiple directories. 3. Consolidate current-packages and current-packages.new into one file. Why now? Well, since it looks like most of Gentoo is falling into place and is growning everyday, now seems like a good time (in my opinion). Also, it appears as though with the new portage expansions (xpak) being the building blocks for 1.0_rc5, that this going into this with a spotless tree may make the work a lot easier. Anyway, I'd like to know what you all think. If it does appear like a good idea, then maybe we should get all the committers together, divide up the tree and go to town... --Jerry name: Jerry Alexandratos || Open-Source software isn't a phone: 703.599.6023 || matter of life or death... email: jerry@thehutt.org || ...It's much more important || than that!
