I've never stated any specific goals. I've simply said we should have some.

Maybe the best direction for gentoo is focusing on embedded, maybe it's focusing on x86, maybe it's dropping Linux entirely and moving over to OpenSolaris and building tools around that. I never stated any opinions in this area so why are you trying to state them for me? It's pathetic that we, as a distribution, cannot have a civil discussion of any kind. --kurt
