So I guess the idea would then be, how do you find packages in the tree where dev FooGuy once maintained it but no longer does (because FooGuy left) and the package is old and nasty and no one cares about it. Leave it in the tree anyway? I certainly don't want unmaintained CRAP in the tree, although unmaintained decent programs are good. By decent I mean programs that are generally so old they never have version bumps ;) - -Alec -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.1 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Thunderbird - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iQIVAwUBQyGOPWzglR5RwbyYAQIjsw//WUnfgMqI6b4tz6OXw7Dp86Mb3L2s/x6A 9xmYnOCN6fRTcjTgwOE9qNtfRltP9caa8GTUTzI2XaufncGpEZnM+Bm9YQ1cNBWK poTYOuhdoAB87Yf/oAlUUAv/g2NPAztaG0tFFtkPDs+/iDP8b1X2d8YAKlaGebmO By7x3mhZsLjJb6sFsG2Ww7zNGqyn0gYWy3SAoalN8TkAa5am/uvs1F1Vq5aO+2qK PQPrIpUm4lw2m8jftIjgPpZn1yUZ7u+h8dLXaDD9hkAh+mTqiXWQYrvbZIjHa/0I ysSYWxjjOdotx3DPp9DPfYFXuMQRGiA9CdZfkYUoKINOsuvvgm8f6bC/uwLc+SF+ 0xiJTHgMCj9gXd3SysJYpey6YP1k7ffgsMSSFD941lsWQUPA2B8whX3sKtkJJv5l 382wxzZb+c11RlGtesIEAzkU0rLJwwC/ZXfCRxPg+sheHqT4526+P2BNUQ2FxlYb IuLoX8TegnkNGo4BzuzfH69eWH/SKWfoechIO2rIiDRPiLd77FQwjYRXc/rJvimg FaeNE4ihoH5MZcQOEnKfPdBkmga9bvDaeAaMpGdcJFrz1LQAUuoFvjYDNwh+qPyQ Puw6M+5JFy/60johUIyJcU1xiFud6a5nwg1IpL2GRSMcBCZazvjIQfqelJ4IYAO5 ehkwxiGIOSE= =vQKJ -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- gentoo-dev@gentoo.org mailing list
