It's not about Ciaran's (or anyone's ideas). We openly and publicly 
discuss such things in Exherbo, too. Not endlessly, though, but we get to 
an actual decision in a much shorter timeframe.

Of course, Ciaran plays along the Gentoo way of either discussing things 
till a) people are sufficiently annoyed about the length of the thread to 
stop reading it at all (the normal procedure), b) the council decides to 
postpone the decision to the next meeting during which it gets postponed 
to the next meeting (and so on) or c) it's being decided that it's not 
needed (only to discover half a year later that an issue has to be worked 
around again because the real solution was treated in the way of a) or 
b)). :-)

So this is not badmouthing but dealing with the facts of Gentoo.

Best regards, Wulf
