Fair points across the board but this stood out to me. We *do* have groups that, on some subset of the tree, exert what they feel to be winners. QA, the KDE team, and GNOME team have all made formal recommendations or requirements that they expect to see in ebuilds going forward. QA is blessed by council of course, so they have a bit more sway. But we're lying if we say we don't have committees making decisions on packaging guidelines. That's not the same as choosing a single package and telling every one to scram, but we're not hands-off, either. -- Daniel Campbell - Gentoo Developer OpenPGP Key: 0x1EA055D6 @ hkp://keys.gnupg.net fpr: AE03 9064 AE00 053C 270C 1DE4 6F7A 9091 1EA0 55D6
