FWIW, gentoo-dev wouldn't be either.  But as here, pretty much all lists=20
(and forums and IRC and...) should be at least polite enough to refer=20
first time posters to the correct locations, and often to answer the=20
question too. =3D:^)

But Gentoo uses bugs for all sorts of stuff, including administrative=20
stuff like tracking new and retiring devs, and other "not ordinarily=20
something you'd call a bug" bugs, so that's a reasonable place (even if=20
they do get marked invalid or notabug at times), and the various user=20
forums/lists/IRC-channels work well if you want a second user opinion, or=
=20
just some peer help, before bothering a dev.
