Is Daniel Robbins Forking Gentoo?

127.0.0.1

Barring any build issues from upstream, I plan to offer fresh Gentoo
stages that are no more than a week old at
http://www.funtoo.org/linux/, so the next time you need a fresh stage
tarball, please give one of mine a try. It will save you quite a bit of
"emerge -u world" time. And thanks

Daniel Robbins:

"Tonko, they are unmodified stable Gentoo stages, just recent builds.
The x86 and i686 stages have been switched over to use the 2007.1
profile while the amd64 stages are still on the 2007.0 profile, which
is the most recent in the portage tree at the moment"

I may add some enhancements in the future - will see.

No mention of a fork, and his updates are really, really welcomed.

I agree, his updates save a great deal of compile time. Just grabbed
his latest stage3 installing now. :-)

Why I see a fork or possible fork.
