I'd like to get this clarified though.
I'm a bit reluctant with respect to gentoo. It's philosophy isn't a stable release in the first place, but to have the latest and greatest of everything available(*), if I get their philosophy right. Using "stable" Linux distros as an indicator, whether a package needs a vote or not, is a sort of reality check. Packages not in a "stable" distro are likely not used very often, not as well tested, etc. Gentoo is not a very well indicator here. Corinna (*) I don't mean to imply that gentoo isn't stable. No offense meant. -- Corinna Vinschen Please, send mails regarding Cygwin to Cygwin Project Co-Leader cygwin AT cygwin DOT com Red Hat
