How certain are you of this guess? How long is long enough? Mostly?
At the moment, it beats mostly on our efforts to it; and in the near
future, it'll need to adapt further to newer EAPIs as well as further
bugs and other complexities in the Portage trees. Otherwise you'll get
a lot of "we can't continue because they stopped developing Portage".
Hence that's why it comes up every now and then as a subject, hence
someone finally made the call to reinforcement, ...; so, it won't have
to continue beating on its own at all.
