One of the consequences of this is that the livecds are no-longer being released. This leaves the installer with no place or function any longer. The installer developers have all moved on to other projects, leaving GLI in an unmaintained state. We can no-longer offer support for the 2008.0-r1 LiveCDs for x86 and amd64, though we expect it to work for those that use it. During this project's five year existence, it has been both a pride for Gentoo and a source of controversy. The Gentoo Handbook is still the official installation method for Gentoo.
