It is amazing, and thank you so much to everyone who makes it possible! At the same time all the upstream crap is pretty tragic. I am absolutely in favor of exposing users to it, rather than the happy Gentoo garden full of magic patches :) and fast-path:ing bugs upstream when things do not work. In an ideal world, upstream would care. Of course many don't, and patches may still end up in Gentoo, but then at least users would know, and might get involved upstream, where they can actually help improve the package. Gentoo is the wrong place for that, so it doesn't make sense for them to get involved in Gentoo. I think unstable on (most) everything would be a great thing. Again: Thanks to everyone who contributes to Gentoo! :) //Peter
