But what I had in mind, that is much more pressing is a list of additional questions, or re-ordering the questions or re-stating the quesions or matrix logic on the causal relationships between these quesions and other questions as to conclusion of valid install options is more of what I had in mind. Once that is reasoably vetted then I would look for some statisical inferences on the actual answers to these quetions as well as valid install links like sabayon for gentoo(ish) systemd like calculate-linus for gentoo(ish)openrc like pentoo for gentoo-penetration systems like zentoo for gentoo CI systems Like funtoo as an option install like gentooliveUSB for a gentoo + persistence experience. I think this sort of approach will take some stress off of the gentoo-user list and handbook whilst Blueness brings maturity to his efforts; he alreayd has lilblue, tinhat and tor-ramdisk gentoo installs, so he is one of those guys that can single-handedly solve this crisis: should he put his fingers to the task. MaffBlaster has been very quite of late..... Blueness is a wonderful and collegial type of dev and is currently seeking input on his 'alpha' ideas:: https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Project:RelEng_GRS THANKS! James
