While I am partly responsible for setting it up I have to admit that not only 
did it not work then, it has never really worked. Worst of all was that most 
of the work being done was not part of any project at all. Attempts like 
desktop-research to develop some extra strengths for gentoo failed utterly. 
It opened my eyes that indeed an open source community distribution is not an 
organisation in the traditional sense.
