Strike, we’re mentioned on pro-linux.de, the central german newspage for linux-issues.
On the ebuild-side we have app-text/scribble, the most easy-to-use text-application I’ve ever seen, x11-misc/viewglob, a small application which tries to prevent the overall »ls« when using the terminal.

Over the last few months BreakMyGentoo was more or less inactive. The then-maintainer has not enough time to provide things and so he decided to give up. I decided to take over the project to lead it back to the shining sun. So here we are.
During the last days I was creating a complete new webpage and set up a new SVN-repository. The show-stopper is the planet, completely written from scratch, to have a clean and useful codebase. The complete page is Smarty-based and thus highly customable.
In the next days I will set up a bugtracker and provide a RSS-feed for the planet.
Contributors of ebuilds are always welcome, developer applications are also wanted. If you have time and feel fit to create ebuilds for unstable software, don’t be too shy to apply becoming BreakMyGentoo-developer.
Our focus will be providing a various serie of unstable applications, currently nautilus-sendto-0.4, gimp-2.3.2, gtk-engines-clearlooks-0.6.2 are in there. If you want to use this ebuilds, visit our About-page and follow the instructions. In the tradition of BMG, we’ll focus on GNOME. But nevertheless, nobody should be kept from commiting KDE-stuff or something like this.
I hope we have fun over the next month. Let’s make Gentoo inovative again. If you will excuse, there are a lot of things to make better than it is, Gentoo’s current way is not the best, especially if you focus the GNOME-herd. We want to try to help out a bit making the whole project better.
