Just the thought of reading public gentoo mailing lists makes me physically ill.  I want to vomit.<\/p>\n<p>I still believe that most gentoo developers are good people.  There are a lot of examples that can be pointed to to show that teamwork really does work.  Unfortunately, people are now using trolling tactics to push their agenda.  The recent &#8220;Paludis and Profiles&#8221; thread on the gentoo-dev mailing list is a perfect example.<\/p>\n<p>So, to my fellow gentoo devs, I have the following 2 things to say:<br \/>\n1.  Grow up.  Fighting never solves anything.<br \/>\n2.  Speak out about what you think is wrong.
