As a LONG time Gentoo user - now almost 9 years on one machine - I'm
so sorry to hear this, but I concur. There really seems to be a number
of fundamental problems with the platform these day. Not so much with
the software itself, but rather with the mentality of the people
making decisions about Gentoo that effect our day-to-day lives.

I'm sorry to see you go. I was sorry to see Geoff go. I will likely
one day soon be sorry to see myself go.

Cheers,
Mark
