Gentoo Linux @10 still compiling

,----[ Quote ]
| Instead of being binary based (like 
| nearly every other distro), Gentoo's 
| history is in the source. The benefits 
| are that users get to actually compile 
| applications (and the operating system 
| itself) on their own machines.

,----[ Quote ]
| solar was asking about release 
| statistics, so I grabbed the current 
| data from Bouncer. The nearly 34k 
| releases for 10.0 is just in the 5 days 
| that it's been out. I included the 
| various architetures that were part of 
| each released 'product', to make some 
| degree of comparision possible.

| The Gentoo developers have announced the availability of
| Gentoo Linux 10.0 as a special edition LiveDVD to celebrate
| their tenth anniversary. The project usually works with
| rolling updates: every few weeks, the developers release
| updated installation CDs that serve as a basis for new
| Gentoo installations. Users then keep their systems current
| by installing regular online updates.
