The main mysql dev has been dealing with a lot of real-life issues (school, exams, etc) and hasn't had the appropriate time to make this work. However, he does have someone he wants to bring on board to help take care of mysql and has been doing a great job so far. I've been following bug 83011 as things get closer to getting into portage. About the unmasking... I'm not sure, 4.1 introduces a lot of migration headache so the transition will need to have some kind of sane flow. I'm not the person to really comment on that! -- Lance Albertson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Gentoo Infrastructure | Operational Manager --- Public GPG key: <http://www.ramereth.net/lance.asc> Key fingerprint: 0423 92F3 544A 1282 5AB1 4D07 416F A15D 27F4 B742 ramereth/irc.freenode.net
