Yes, that's the situation.
I've used gentoo before, and went back to fedora, and am considering
coming back. I've never used ubuntu, so can't really say what that's
like.
A few things I really like about gentoo:
1.) this list has "nicer" people here than in the fedora list. Dunno
why. The replies are generally more helpful, with people really
willing to put alot of effort in. The RTFM responses are minimal. I
have no idea why this is the case, but this is my experience.
2.) This list in mirrored in usenet. I can post via pan and gmane,
then use google groups to search stuff up. A minor improvement would
be scrap this e-mail list and use "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" so that I
could post from google groups. Of course, there are cons to that, but
that's a tangent.
I'm not interested in delving into the system, I have other interests.
I just want it to work. In that sense, isn't that what portage is
all about?
