[gentoo-dev] Retirement / packages up for grabs

Howdy all, I haven't had much time for Gentoo lately, so I'm turning in my keys. It's been a great learning experience, and I hope my contributions were helpful. Best of luck on your future endeavors. The following packages are up for grabs: app-emulation/virtio-win app-misc/tails-installer

Re: [gentoo-dev] rfc: moving OpenRC to a meson-based build

Autotools/Cmake would both fit the bill here. I'm not deeply involved with OpenRC though, so it's really up to you. At the end of the day though, if you're just researching if it's viable and not actually implementing it, then you don't really need to see if other people are okay with it. Make a sepa

Re: [gentoo-dev] Optimizing toe stepping
