Keep up the good work! Thanks for your post -- you definitely have a lot of neat ideas. Please try to stop by in #gentoo sometime (if you aren't there already) and alert me to your presence so that I can create a dev account for you. You appear to be ready to start commiting your scientific apps directly to Portage, but please still be very careful with the Python ebuild -- you should check with me and achim first before modifying python or spython since it has the potential to affect our work. Right now, we're focusing on getting rc5 ready for developers in the next 24 hours. That includes the CD, a good build image and all the binary packages. Over the next week, we'll probably be fixing little quirks and then announcing on freshmeat. Just wanted to give you a little background so you don't feel like we've been ignoring your Python ebuilds. :) We're quite busy atm :) Best Regards, -- Daniel Robbins President/CEO http://www.gentoo.org Gentoo Technologies, Inc.
