Actually, we spent a fair amount of time talking about Gentoo Status in yesterdays meeting and how to move forwards with that. As for PR, after the Userrel + PR merge we have more manpower, and we're not concerned with just the release. Hell, as far as the release goes, PR for that is done by the Releng team and their PR coordinator. Don't assume that PR isn't interested, but we can't read minds and if people don't keep us in the loop then chances are we miss stuff that could be news worthy. -- gentoo-dev@gentoo.org mailing list
