By "that 'git clean'" patch, do you mean [1]? Why are you speaking as if you're talking about a 3rd party and not people that are also on the gentoo-dev mailing list? It seems like the more productive thing to do would be to at least offer substantive criticism about a specific PR, maybe even in the PR itself. While I'm at it: you used to be reachable on IRC, but you never migrated away from Freenode. Why? It seems like every few days someone is looking for you only to be surprised that you're not in Gentoo's IRC community anymore. [1] https://github.com/gentoo/portage/pull/939
