It's not meant as a personal critisism of Ciaran. Ciaran's being very helpful in this thread. It just happens that it was his post that created the opportunity for me to make that comment. I stand by the critera I stated. They're exactly what you are doing, and exactly what Ciaran is doing - failure avoidance. I am *not* going to keep this just on a technical level. (I will, however, keep this discussion professional). The overlays are a social tool just as much as a technical one. The social aspect keeps getting ignored in this thread, or dismissed as unimportant. That frustrates me, I don't mind admitting. Best regards, Stu -- -- gentoo-dev@gentoo.org mailing list
