Nonetheless, I agree w/ vapier. GLEP 39 supercedes GLEP 4, and clearly the changes were extreme there. For the previous and current changes to GLEP 39 the changes are much smaller, and I'd rather see the changes done inline. *Shrug* It's a slippery slope, but I'd rather rely on common sense until there's actual evidence that it's failing. -g2boojum- -- Grant Goodyear Gentoo Developer [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.gentoo.org/~g2boojum GPG Fingerprint: D706 9802 1663 DEF5 81B0 9573 A6DC 7152 E0F6 5B76
