Hi everyone.
I'm the current maintainer for xmms and all plugins. As you all know
xmms is writen over GTK+-1. This toolkit is not supported by the
upstream like xmms. We have lot's of dead upstream plugins on portage
and this is a pain to maintain like xmms itself. You might want to look

Hi
I'm glad to announce a new sub project from Gentoo Science. The Physics
sub project!
You may noticed i created a new category on the tree and moved a few
packages from another categories to the new one.
Now the future is to maintain and add new applications to provide the

s to be an easy way to users and
developers comunicate together and work. Like i said a few months ago
the documentation won't give any problems to GDP since GDP provides high
level docs. The wiki will also help our projects since it can be added
TODO's, roadmaps and all that stuff. About

Welcome to our team and congrats.

I think the wiki will have users cooperate directly into herds, herds
can expose all types of information there (like status and future goals)
and it could be useful for feature requests, ideas, interaction between
everyone and it's a simple method for doing all this stuff.

our goal. I think the public wiki
idea will improve the communication between devs and users, add goals
and show the status of projects. IMO GDP can't do much in this area
simply because they don't have much to do about this and they have of
course high level of docs to maintain.

Yes it's true because reiser4 isn't ready for AMD64 atm. There are a
couple of users that tried reiser4 and they got nothing more than data
corruption because reiser4 is unstable.
For somehow reiser4 isn't in the stable kernel.
-
iners that is completly unstable. Then the Archs Teams keyword the
packages.
Most of the people don't understand that ~arch is a testing keyword and
it's not stable. Fortunatly most of the bugs we get are from ~arch and
not from stable arch.

Remember that some users still want to run 32bits apps and i think
multilib is the best way to support both 32 and 64 bits. Our multilib

During this time i belive that the AMD64 arch team is doing QA job for
x86 arch too. Thanks to our Arch Testers we can test, patch and improve
the quality of the packages for AMD64 and for x86 too. I Belive that
MIPS team is doing the same thing they test packages
