[snip history] > what does this has to with qa@ team? The only bodies that are allowed to avoid policies in Gentoo are QA and security teams.

Sorry, I never wanted to touch any weapons and I really appreciate your efforts. You really do tremendous job for Gentoo. But this is not the first thread where I ask you same question: what is the problem to follow policy? If it was a mistake what's the problem to sorry and update mask interval. If not... What will happen if you keep hard masked package for 30 days instead of 14? How this will affect libpng stabilization? The only thing that changes - we will have 56 non-development related mails less in our mailboxes. -- Peter.
