glep Gentoo Linux Enhancement Proposals 19 Oct 2003 Grant Goodyear The GLEP project manages Gentoo Linux Enhancement Proposals. The GLEP project solicits, collects, maintains, and shepherds proposals for substantially enhancing Gentoo Linux. Any user or developer may construct and submit a GLEP for consideration by the GLEP editors. Because GLEPs are kept in CVS, GLEPs constitute a permanent record of proposals designed to enhance Gentoo Linux.
