Well I was sitting here in my small, courner of the world country typing away at my beautifull gentoo when I wondered, are there any more of 'us' in this land?

So are there any fellow gentoo user's out there in the small land of New Zealand?


Thanks again, Ducky.

Hmm, I'd take a stab and say Swaziland or Rwanda.. Lowly-developed (small) African countries.

Yes, there have been a couple others, but I don't see them around there much. I was expecting more people once unbundling took hold.

One guy's who's avatar was the gnu yak. I can't remember his nick. I'll have to think about it.

edit: I've thought about it some more, and I THINK this guy is a kiwi as well. I'll pm him and point him here.

You're from NZ as well?


Anyway... With a name like 'suicideducky' I think that we've got an emo.... Let's ship him off to France along with his melancholy.

Maybe everyone's internet is so unreliable now that they still can't post on here? :-D

I have a feeling there were one or two others - I think maybe a girl from Wellington, but I can't remember her username.

Well, I'm in the Waikato, and the weather is quite nice, so I'm sure you'll get it soon.

I'm an on-and-off gentoo user from NZ.
The girl from wellington you're thinking of is probably brandy, a way back she used to be a forum mod (i think) and also an actual dev.
She retired some time ago though, and i have no clue as to what she's actually doing atm.
I remember there was quite a furor when she got made a mod, due to her being a girl and also a rather attractive girl at that.
That all died down though and she did a great job of things.
And her website is even still up... http://home.clear.net.nz/pages/gentoo/index.html
But as you can see, hasn't been updated since 2003.

Mm yeah, she's pretty... But I wonder what her personality was like...


More importantly, what were her political beliefs like (I'm finding to many technically brilliant women to be far too fascist for my liking)? :-p
