overly large files in portage

Just a brief list of files that are too large to be in portage (without good 
reason), and the people who put them there. The savings if these files were 
removed would be: 2652734bytes (2.53MB) which may not seem like much to those 
of us with cable/dsl/T1, but for those unfortunate enough to be stuck with 
dialup (poor livewire) it'll add up

Since there were no objections, I'll do this.

Hopefully the portage-ng people are working on the ability to have the portage 
tree be a cache and fetch missing info from the net when it's needed... That 
would solve problems like this in addition to making *true* embedded Gentoo 
systems possible.

Hi Iggy,

Thanks for pointing this out.  The bloat was pretty incredible. I've
moved ALL the xmms patches into tarballs (currently there's a tarball
for 1.2.7 patches and a tarball for 1.2.8 patches making their way onto
our mirrors).  As a result, files/ has only the digests now.

dbus-0.11 I've removed from the tree entirely, and it took that cvs
patch with it.

As for Xfree, azarah, donnie, and I will discuss strategy on which

disabling password authentication on dev.gentoo.org

Some folks in the meeting today suggesting disabling password auth on
dev.gentoo.org and requiring ssh key authentication for all *.gentoo.org
servers. Everyone present at the time supported the idea, so I'm posting it
here for comment.  Unless there is quite a bit of opposition from a
majority of the development team, this feature will go into effect no later
than the end of the week (Dec. 05) and possibly as soon as Wednesday (Dec.
03)

I take it this won't change anything mail-wise?

No -- this would *only* affect ssh connections.  Mail would still continue
to operate as it does now.

I kinda got this figured out for cvs by dumping ssh keys from one of my 
machines onto dev, but How will we copy our keys to get distributed to 
dev now?  And what about those of us that run ssh connections off a 
windows desktop (i.e. PuTTY), how can this be setup properly?

I'd assume whoever sets up the account will do that for you. Any further 
changes can be done in 3 steps (add new key, test, remove old).
