Once again I'll refer to the blog [1] of kloeri, Lead of the Gentoo Developer
Relations project (devrel) and a member of the Gentoo Council.
Also [2] clearly shows that Gentoo is quite active in terms of daily
commits...
Very good to see that.

Pfft. bugs.gentoo.org will be replaced by what is now bugstest.gentoo.org
hopefully in the following weekend. Surely before the end of this year.. I
could dig out a number of references to back that up but I won't bother given
how you haven't backed up any part of your claims in this thread...
What claims?
> Do you think Gentoo is waning?
Just because a project isn't moving as fast or as focused as some people might
want it to doesn't mean it's declining!
It means the rate of growth is declining.
> Is Debian the only similar distro out there?
I would say that it is a lot easier to list the similarities than the
differences between Debian and Gentoo. Debian really isn't that similar...
