Dear Gentoo developers, I am a grateful Gentoo user, I'm pretty happy with Gentoo and already have five installations of it, including one running a pilot project at my work. I started working with Linux 6 years ago and came through RH-SuSE-Ubuntu. None of them (except maybe SuSE 9.0 for some time) was perfect for me, until I tried Gentoo. So firstly, *thank a lot* guys.
Recently I've subscribed to this list because I thought this is the right way to start being involved in Gentoo development process --- I thought technical discussions are of most importance here. But what do I see? For more than a week, I need to came through dozens of pure-fanatical e-mails having nothing except personal insults, FUD, idiotic wikipedia links etc. etc. I can't believe it was always like this. I really hope this is a temporary burst, caused by proposed EAPI change or something else, because it makes my plans of carefully introducing Gentoo as business-critical-ready-os to my employer much more complicated. Maybe it is time to create a list gentoo-flame or gentoo-fud and post everything there? I'm subscribed to several development and user mailing lists and I nowhere I saw anything like this, for so long period of time. Sorry if I don't understand something --- I'm really a new gentoo-dev reader, but I feel sorry for this brilliant distribution sinking in the darkness of FUD. Please please *do* stop it. Many thanks in advance, -- Ivan -- gentoo-dev@lists.gentoo.org mailing list
