I was wondering on how gentoo is financed and kept running. Up till now I was using Suse which is pretty stable and I can expect that Sue will continue living. In the worst case it will probably be bought (like now from Novell) but the distribution itself will survive. I now installed gentoo last week in a seperate installation to get a feel for it and I like it because it solves some issues I have with Suse. The only thing I wonder about is if I can expect gentoo being still available in a year (so to speak). I would hate to change to a distribution and after some time it dies and I will have to switch again.
