What sort of bug fixes are you looking to get out quicker? While the EAPI stuff drew out .53 a little longer than originally expected it was still only 30 days from first rc to final (assuming _rc7 is final). I can't really see the necessity for getting non-regression fixes out "quicker". At the moment, a lot of fixes go out all at once rather than in lots of small bumps. I doubt the overall speed would change very much. -- Jason Stubbs -- gentoo-portage-dev@gentoo.org mailing list
