If all our users supported Funtoo Linux, I (Daniel Robbins) would easily be able to work on Funtoo Linux full-time.

=== Expand the wiki! ===
 
The [[:Help:Funtoo_Editing_Guidelines | How to 'wiki']] will help you to learn how to create wiki documents. Have a look at [[Requested Documents]] and [[:Category:Needs_Updates | pages that need to be updated.]]
 
See [[:Category:Ebuilds|Ebuilds]] for a list of all ebuild pages, and [[Adding an Ebuild to the Wiki]] for information on how to add one.
 
=== Translations ===
 
This wiki is using a new system to manage translations to non-English languages. View [[Special:PageTranslation]] for a list of pages that have been chosen to be translated. We ask that all translators focus on these pages -- the list will expand in the future. To translate a page, {{CreateAccount}}, log in, and then click the "Translate this page" link at the top of the page. Translation is easy -- you can translate the page piece by piece so it is manageable. This new system is designed to keep translations up-to-date so that our non-English documentation remains current.

=== Distinctives ===
 
Funtoo Linux is a meta-distribution, which means it is built (fully automatically) with the functionality and optimizations that ''you'' want, not what some distro maintainer thought was best for you. Packages are installed directly from source code, thanks to the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Portage_(software) Portage ports system], inspired by the FreeBSD ports system, written in Python and with full advanced package management functionality. We use [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Git_(software) Git] for all our development, and we also use Git to deliver our ports tree to you.
 
In contrast to Gentoo Linux, we offer a number of innovations, including our extensive use of git, [[Funtoo Profiles|our profile system]], [[Package:Boot-Update|boot-update]] boot management tool, our incredibly flexible [[Funtoo Linux Networking|template-based networking scripts]], [[Metro Quick Start Tutorial|Metro]] distribution build system, support of Debian, RHEL and other kernels, [[Creating_Python-related_Ebuilds|enhanced Python support]], Portage mini-manifests, user-centric distribution model, and a large number of community infrastructure improvements.
