This is one of the things I don't understand about gentoo. The About page says
gentoo is aimed at power users, the installation process reflects just that
and then they choose nano because it's easier for newbies and make the
mailinglists non-subscribe-only because it's better for newbies? Sorry but
somehow I think they should really think about this, are we newbie friendly
or not?
Even if the answer is yes, everyone that managed to get anywhere near where
they have to use nano to edit something will also manage to subscribe to a
maillinglist!
