Draino's Networking and Tech: Is Gentoo becoming more like Debian?

Draino's Networking and Tech: Is Gentoo becoming more like Debian?

In response to a freind of mines criticism of the release proccess i felt compelled to do some digging of my own, and ive realised that the gentoo "releases" were never terribly usefull to begin with. the shift of the standard install documentation to being stage 3 only, and the focus on the minimal cd method, fetching all the required parts from the web rather than getting them off the install cd both show the direction and territory gentoo intends to exist in.

This is my os, i compiled it, the sources are from the individual program cvs/svn reps, the package list was current from my very first boot and nothing is out of date, from the kernel to kde, all the sources are the latest, complete with all security and stability fixes.

Gentoo is meant to be always up to date, because its compiled from sources the user is given the latest system from the start. the pre built stages and "releases" are falling out of favour as gentoo based distros step in to provide "drop and go" prebuilt gentoo system instalations that are far better than the half yearly or so official gentoo releases.

Which leads to my next entry..... Sabayon linux ?
