Fair point, I suppose what I was trying to say is that you don't distribute a Gentoo VMware package, as other distros would have to. Even if the licence didn't permit mirroring, you'd still have the builds in portage, but with fetch restriction (I take it the beta ebuilds are fetch restricted). -- Neil Bothwick If the cops arrest a mime, do they tell her she has the right to remain silent?
