I've been using Gentoo now for a couple of months, wrote some ebuilds, loved gentoo's simplicity(configuration system), etc. BUT, I would like to get involved more with Gentoo though I don't know where to start or what to improve. Is there a general Todo list or Goal list of features we want, so some of us can go ahead an implement them? For example, there was an idea of putting portage into a db system. One feature that I think is good, but I don't take advantage as much as I would like to is the USE variable system. Reason? Usually I have no way of knowing what 'optional capabilities' an ebuild package has so I can enable the USE var for it. In other words, it would be nice to query a package for its general optional capabilities it provides. Maybe there is a todo list on the website, but as far as I have read, I couldn't find any:) Kashif Shaikh -- gentoo-dev <at> gentoo.org mailing list
