It is with great joy that i report i finally cut myself loose from
something that i once loved to do and spend my time on, but since have
grown more and more disenchanted with.
I don't mind spending my time in front of the screen for hours on end if
it seems fruitfull to do so, however i am not able to seperate between
the good things that i like, the good people that i like and those
things i no longer can tolerate and the way people interact, yeah i
know, the big bad dev has left the herd, and people have chosen not to
interact negatively since, that doesn't mean gentoo is doing all that
great, if people think we should call teams teams and not herds, and
everyone agrees it is not a huge difference then why oppose it so hard?
If threads intended to make us think on how we can be more open to the
community get diverted into technical bickering over which VCS we should
get we have lost one important thing out of sight, gentoo is a distro by
users for users, and the users i think are left out of the loop on this
whole situation (more power to you userrel guys, please prove me wrong),
why would we want to be more open and inviting if being a badass who
passed some generic quiz is so much more fun. If everyone would step
down from the pedestal for a while and looked around, then maybe, just
maybe we would realize that we no longer do things to be there for them
(the users) but for ourselves, anything is geared towards improving our
leetness level, why do things have to be so complicated that people
think one can not work on ebuilds w/o some super hard special quiz or
two, it all gears towards "what you don't know how to use XYZ, you must
not be very smart/leet/cool."
working on making things easier seems to not fit into people's ideals of
how this distribution should operate.
I will not spend my time on something where i met nice people who taught
me a whole lot if the sole reason would be that i feel i owe them
something. That would cause me to be unmotivated and drag my feet on
stuff like the bloke next to me, and i no longer want to linger around
like that. It just isn't fair to gentoo (the people i care about
within), the users or me. I better stop being what i never liked about
gentoo.
So it is with great joy i can scream on the top of my lungs:
EJECT EJECT EJECT!
For devrel/recruiters: sorry i always confuse your roles, whoever
actually does that, please remove my accounts and all that good stuff,
for gentoo-dev change the email back to dgoller@satx.rr.com,
kthxbye</chriswhitestyle>
Yours truly,
Daniel
P.S. If you like source based, you like choice, and you especially do
not expect gentoo2 try www.sourcemage.org for your next install.
