You mean "two out of three blatently ignored long-standing behaviour
and added a new feature without discussion or an EAPI bump".
> Paludis doesn't preserve mtime
You mean "Paludis carefully emulated Portage behaviour, and is now
somehow being blamed for the whole matter, to the extent that people
are trying to use threats (to the effect of 'I'm going to deliberately
break packages for Paludis users") to try to get their way in the
discussion".
> and it's approach to randomly resetting mtimes
There's nothing random about it. Files' mtimes are reset to the
current time while being merged, just as Portage did for years.
