Sorry, I can't parse this.

Some problems are better discussed in a real-time fashion, and you (the
Gentoo developers) have already said that you are open to voicing people
who can make a request politely.

I know that we all are volunteers and I really appreciate your work. It
wasn't my intention to be rude at all, I just wanted to point out that
if a *single* person states that he would be an official
point-of-contact, it won't be very usefull as I can't imagine anyone
being on IRC all the time. And if the person who wishes to ask isn't
voiced in, let's say, less than hour, he can send a mail to -dev ML as well.

I'm sorry if you considered my previous reply impolite, I'm not a native
English speaker :-).

WKR,
