I like that attitude! And I'm so going to steal your idea about the phoenix.
I'll start using the [Gentoo Phoenix] tag for discussions about how we
can make Gentoo better. Maybe we could even start a project for it,
trying to bring together ideas and people who want to improve things.
I have several things I wanted to start a discussion about already, and
it seems these things are in the air now as I see these topics popping
up left and right now. I'll fork off from this discussion into some specific
things in order to try to keep things a bit organized.

As I've recently refocussed my Gentoo activities on Qt, and withdrawn
from various other herds I was involved in, I now have some time and
motivation to pick up something new. I wish to dedicate this to something
that will really help and I believe these discussions are a good starting
point. I hope it will trigger others in similar ways.

Cheers,
