Irrelevant: see the name on the list? It's called Gentoo Linux. I know you are trying to be witty, but only shows you are comparing apples and oranges. > With Gnome you will be able to do anything, so it will make no sense to > keep supporting Gnome-less systems. > > With Emacs you will be able to do anything, so it will make no sense to > keep supporting Emacs-less systems. Last time I checked, neither GNOME nor Emacs demanded that Gentoo developers or users had to write a fork/replacement for a core component of the system. GNOME and Emacs just need ebuilds and adapting their configuration to Gentoo-isms. Testing and bug reporting, as usual. The only code needed is some small patches for both and around 200 lines of emacslisp for site-gentoo.el. Again, not witty, just not very informed.
