Hello all,

the most of you don't know me. So I'll first introduce myself.
My name is Alexander Mieland, I'm 32 years old and a german Webprogrammer.
I am using *linux* since four years now, but until the beginning of this 
year only the SuSE distribution. From then on until now, I'm learning 
gentoo. :)
I'm also the maintainer and developer of www.gentoo-stats.org, the GBD.

It would take too long to tell you, what the idea is behind this and how 
it works or should work. So please read first the About:
http://www.gentoo-stats.org/index.php?c=aboutgu
...and then, the F.A.Q:
http://www.gentoo-stats.org/index.php?c=faq

Because we have released a new version of our client today and also 
reseted the statistics-database, because there were too many changes in 
the client, we now need some information and feedback about this project, 
the client and the whole idea.

Please keep in mind, that the thing with the mergetimes *could* and 
*should* be never really accurate. The mergetimes should only be an 
assistance to the really new gentoo-users, who otherwise would ask every 
few minutes how long it could take to merge this or that package. No 
more.

Also keep in mind to really understand how this works, before you'll begin 
to flame me. *g* It is all explained under the "About"-Link.
You can also be oriented towards the "SBU" of the LFS-project. You can 
find there explanation under this link: 
http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/view/stable/chapter04/aboutsbus.html

Please try the actual client on as many arches as you have access on.
Also please give us detailed feedback and/or bugreport with mail (either 
in this thread or with private mail).

If you ever had installed an old gbd-client, please delete it from ~/bin 
and also delete the whole directory ~/.gbd too before you'll install the 
new client.

Well, I hope for many feedback and less bugreports. *g*

Thanks.
