Paludis, Gentoo and Ciaran McCreesh uncensored (Obsethryl's Lab)
George Makrydakis talks
with Ciaran McCreesh about Paludis. "As a project, paludis
combines a lot of what you will see in F/LOSS, in both social structure and
relations to the "fathering" project. Instead of presenting Paludis myself
and why it is preferable to use it in a Gentoo system instead of portage, I
took the liberty of asking Mr. Ciaran McCreesh, Chief developer among the
Paludis team about a relatively gentle introduction to the Paludis world,
why it became a necessity, its design and goals. Also the relation with
Gentoo is examined, but also a glimpse at how F/LOSS can be a socially
complicated issue emerges from this text. This was an email Q & A with
Mr. McCreesh and the replies laid here are uncensored."
