Greetings,
I'm putting together a directory of Gentoo community sites and was wondering if people could point me to any URLs I may have missed. For a list of what I have so far, check out
http://larrythecow.com.
Thanks for the help!

Originally the directory was just going to have community sites (i.e. non gentoo.org stuff), but listing the official stuff is useful too. I've added forums.g.o, planet.g.o, GDP, packages.g.o, and overlays.g.o. I'll start up a new section for non-english language sites (gentoo.ro, gentoofr.org, etc). Thanks for the feedback!

If you do the one, the other can be done as well.

Looking at
DistroWatch Weekly, Issue 159, 10 July 2006 now I see, for example:
http://www.pentoo.ch/ http://gentoox.shallax.com/
Not communities by themselves, but they will communicate around the respective os variants.

larrythecow.com has grown to over 50 links. Thanks for all of the submissions. Keep them coming. As the site continues to grow I'll be moving towards a directory structure (separate pages for each category).
As far as I can tell, I've added all of the links above except for 2.
http://www.gentoo.org.pk - site underconstruction. I'll be happy to add this one once there is some content.
http://www.pentoo.ch/ - I'll add this one later when I create a Gentoo based distro category.

I've been working pretty much non-stop for the last 4 hours and I'm pleased to announce that the new directory style
http://larrythecow.com is up.

The site located at
gentoo.hu is constantly under construction, so for a really good hungarian gentoo users community I recommend
Magenta,
http://magenta.linuxforum.hu/.

Arch Linux and the Arch Linux LiveCD are not Gentoo-Based distros. I don't know about the rest of those. Gentoo-Based means they were built using Gentoo/Portage.

I think they will disagree! They state it and binaries need to be build before you can download and install them.

Are you saying the Arch Linux binaries are built with Gentoo?

Where? You just linked to the homepage. The only mention of gentoo is that they use gentoo kernel patches for certain kernels.

They used to be, as far as I can remember.
The WIKI now talks about 'ABS - The Arch Build System'.
That shows me something else.
Soo, has changed then? Perhaps? So be it!
