I have to agree with that. You can't compete with the other high-end distros
if you spend your (limited) manpower forking packages just because two (or more)
maintainers can't work together. If this keep happening then we are
doomed to always be
one step behind in user experience.
We may as well turn the whole packaging thing into an internal
competition. Whoever has the
prettiest ebuild wins a "Larry The Cow" t-shirt and a goodie bag :)
