We are an architecture team, so except for one developer (bluebird) who is actively working on true multilib support (64-bit userland), we are mostly reactive to bug reports for security, testing, and keywording.
Currently we have enough developers to pretty much keep up with demand. However, note the following: 1. We need arch testers. We use them to help with evaluating keyword requests and as a breeding ground for new developers. However, because of this all of our arch testers have become developers and we need to refresh the pool. 2. Although we currently are keeping up with requests, the work load is heavy enough that we face (in my opinion) a real risk of developer burnout. Thus, I would say that we are understaffed, although we have one or two candidates in process. I'd prefer to have about three more developers as well as arch testers as mentioned above. So, short term, we are in reasonable shape. Longer term, we need to recruit. Regards, Ferris -- Ferris McCormick (P44646, MI) <fmc...@gentoo.org> Developer, Gentoo Linux (Sparc, Userrel, Trustees)
