Is this list dead (just as Gentoo-Performance and > Gentoo-Laptop, for example) or inappropriate for this kind of questions? It's considered inappropriate for this list, which is primarily for discussion of official Gentoo development technical issues and policy, with an eye toward the fact that it's a required subscription for every Gentoo dev. Questions such as this don't need to bother all several hundred Gentoo devs and staff, including those on infra or who otherwise aren't working on ebuilds directly. If you aren't an IRC type guy (I'm not), there are web forums or the user list, where you'll likely find help. Of course, the user list is pretty high volume, off-putting to some, but the way the forums are splitup and the way they work makes for a more focused discussion. -- Duncan - List replies preferred.
