Once again I'll refer to the blog [1] of kloeri, Lead of the Gentoo Developer 
Relations project (devrel) and a member of the Gentoo Council.

Also [2] clearly shows that Gentoo is quite active in terms of daily 
commits...

Pfft. bugs.gentoo.org will be replaced by what is now bugstest.gentoo.org 
hopefully in the following weekend. Surely before the end of this year.. I 
could dig out a number of references to back that up but I won't bother given 
how you haven't backed up any part of your claims in this thread...

Just because a project isn't moving as fast or as focused as some people might 
want it to doesn't mean it's declining!

I would say that it is a lot easier to list the similarities than the 
differences between Debian and Gentoo. Debian really isn't that similar...
