No, brix is certainly not happy with a overlay like sunrise in any official capacity. This should be clear from the meeting [1] that was held between sunrise (jokey and genstef), userrel (represented by christel), brix and myself. Instead brix suggested a different solution to the problem, namely a "proxy maintainer" project that everybody seemed to be happy about at the meeting. However, while brix sees the proxy maintainer project as a replacement for the current sunrise project jokey and genstef sees it as a welcome addition. In any case it's not true that everybody is happy with sunrise yet. Regards, Bryan Østergaard 1. http://article.gmane.org/gmane.linux.gentoo.devel/39764 -- gentoo-dev@gentoo.org mailing list
