Acually I thought it was to far fetched. But thought damn this is going
to get a lot of people. ;-) Good joke!

Just as a follow up to all this, yes, it's a joke.  Yes, we hooked an
amazine number of people and yes, I enjoyed every minute of it. :)

Quite honestly, I'm surprised that so many people believed it.  To me,
the
notion that Gentoo would dump ebuilds in favor of RPMs is so far from
the
realm of possibility as to be absurd.  Obviously, some folks didn't find
it
quite so impossible. :)

I've received some feedback that perhaps I did too good of a job when
writing the piece and made things too believable.  Hopefully, no harm
was
done.  Certainly none was intended.
