<example> Well I'd gather the same reason the council hasn't denounced infra for not implementing what I want them to implement. The council isn't the tool to force people to do things. You can't wave a wand and make features happen. I can't wave a wand and make infra do my bidding, even if it's merited on a technical level. </example> -Alec Warner -- gentoo-dev@gentoo.org mailing list
