Where else would I have brought this up? Paraphrasing, I noted that the x86 team is now doing peer review, I asked if other arch teams are doing the same thing, and I asked how the new system is working, and whether or not the old fears that peer review would slow things down too much seemed to be valid. If that isn't a question for the Gentoo development list, I don't know what is. Nowhere did I say anything evenly remotely negative about what the x86 team is doing, as far as I can tell. If I did, then I sincerely apologize, as it was definitely not my intention. > Peer review should be part of any stablization process.

I didn't say that the x86 policy was a bad one. I was rather hoping that x86 was doing peer review and at least one other arch team wasn't, since then we could try to make some sort of quantitative comparison. -g2boojum- -- Grant Goodyear Gentoo Developer [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.gentoo.org/~g2boojum GPG Fingerprint: D706 9802 1663 DEF5 81B0 9573 A6DC 7152 E0F6 5B76
