If there are people running gentoo Linux who CAN NOT do this, they
definitely should speak up. That's exactly why a newsitem needs to be
sent out announcing this and giving a time window before we go forward
with anything.
There is a difference between CAN not and WILL not. If you disagree with
what I'm about to say say so, but it seems to me that if someone WILL
not perform a change, that is more something they should worry about,
not us.
