Or would | you mark gcc 4.0 stable after 30 days? I think that's what Paul | wanted to say. For that, I'd point you at the devmanual version of keywording policy, which is a hell of a lot better written and includes an explicit remark about core system components needing a lot more than 30 days. http://dev.gentoo.org/~plasmaroo/devmanual/keywording/ Plus for stuff like gcc, it's very much an arch decision, not a package maintainer decision. --=20 Ciaran McCreesh : Gentoo Developer (Vim, Shell tools, Fluxbox, Cron) Mail : ciaranm at gentoo.org Web : http://dev.gentoo.org/~ciaranm --Signature_Fri__16_Sep_2005_20_34_06_+0100_IOtEaN8+Ib+F=pqK Content-Type: application/pgp-signature -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.1 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFDKx4w96zL6DUtXhERAjFDAJ9couS3p9DNpqCZ1VCZGp+v0M6ALACfaLGN nVbWd06I1KekqByUhVebm3c= =pjPd -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --Signature_Fri__16_Sep_2005_20_34_06_+0100_IOtEaN8+Ib+F=pqK-- -- gentoo-dev@gentoo.org mailing list
