Thank you for you opinion.
The competition in open source world is much harder than with
commercial software. 3 commercial systems share 96% of the users.
1,6% of the users are shared by 296 Linux distros
You may think that you're outside this rules but the competition is natural
on the planet and Gentoo is certainly competing weather you want it or not.
Competition was long before a human foot stood on the ground for the first
time :-) And suddenly there is no competition in Linux world - do you really
belive in it?
