Gentoo is about choice. So what about developers? Don't we also have a choice? Sometimes we have to choose what is best for ourselves (note, I'm not talking about anything selfish or malicious here). Sometimes we have to choose what is best for Gentoo. In most cases, we are even right, although you would never guess this from the amount of complaining that occurs anytime we make such a choice... -Steve -- gentoo-dev@gentoo.org mailing list
