No it has. Giving power to a subset of users, denying interaction with
future contributors unless they enroll is the eaxct way to kill Gentoo
as a community !

I've voiced my opinion as a 10 year user. I've never take nor the
quizzes, nor made any move to become a Gentoo Developper beacause of
this kind of closedmind state.

People have voiced against this proposals before. So you want to protect
some developper instead of getting an open community.

As I've already said, Gentoo community is taking (and part is because of
lack of user consideration) a very bad direction.

I might want to spread the word that Gentoo is not anymore a welcoming
community for people who want to delve inside GNU/Linux and easily
understant how is build a complete OS.
