Not to put too fine a point on it, but there is no need to debate an issue of unfulfilled expectations; the fact that this fork was motivated by dissappointment about not having clout is evident once you see the words 'sweat equity investment'. This impression is exacerbated by the war cry 'the time is now', as though reference is being made to a sinking ship. It's all in bad taste, and is apparent from the get-go. I hope that Zach uses this opportunity to take existing Gentoo technologies in innovative directions, but I'd have to say this could have been executed in a more professional manner.
