Re: [gentoo-dev] Proper Gentoo Name (was License criteria for Gentoo)

I agree, but I wouldn't find it useful anymore. I find the Linux kernel 
useful for many of the things that run on it alone (usually non-free 
software). Otherwise I would prolly use a BSD (I prefer the dev model) ;).

Gentoo needs Linux otherwise 3 people will use it.  Linux is why people 
use it.

Even a BSD kernel would not be as usefull (except in certain performance 
criteria).

All of these may be additions and choices, I guess.  Be Gentoo's strength 
is Linux more than portage.  To me (and probably me alone ;).

Evan.
