I'm not sure about that. Having portage in arch/bazaar would let 'gentoo derivatives' to easily pull selective changes from the 'mainline', would potentially allow us to pull back from them, etc. It might facilitate the stable project to do branches of portage and snipe individual patches for updates, etc very easily. The distributed aspect of it doesn't necessary have to immediately impact core gentoo devs commiting ebuilds. Or maybe not, I dunno. The point being I don't think we should immediately write off any of the distributed SCMs without pondering how they might make a difference or be usable. -pete -- Peter Johanson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> -- [email protected] mailing list
