I really don't understand why it is better to break the stable trees of
$ARCH instead of just making them all ~ARCH. (ie. ~mips, ~x86-fbsd,
etc). If the $ARCH doesn't have the manpower to do stable reqs then they
don't have the manpower to fix broken stable trees either or do security
bugs. So, IMHO, this proposal doesn't solve anything. With the key
problem being that the 'slacker' arches can't keep up with the stable
reqs and hence a large number of stale ebuilds and stale bugs being kept
around.
