Guys, The email from "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" is fishing for developers. It has nothing to do with Gentoo, in fact Debian was mentioned in the email. It's purely using the gentoo-dev ML to reach a list of potential candidates. Please don't respond to the email on-list. Regards, Aron -- Aron Griffi

Great Ideas! Thanks for the info. I had not thought of the slashdot route. I realize this will be a long slow process and we feel confident that we can raise enough capital to pull it off. Mostly we'll be looking for paid staff with some volunteer augmentation. I suspect we'll want to go with th
