How did you come up with the idea of making a separate Linux distribution for the XBox

Well, before using Linux on the Xbox, I was always fond of Gentoo - I had it installed on three PCs and even my laptop. When I started work on Gentoox, the only available Linux distribution for the Xbox was Ed's Debian, don't get me wrong this distribution is good, but it's not for me and I'm sure there are others who think alike, so when I came down with an illness and had to take a week off school, I decided to see if it was possible to get a stable Gentoo platform on the Xbox. It was going to be a personal learning project, I never intended on releasing but when I showed people in various Gentoo chat channels on IRC, they said it was selfish of me not to release it so I decided to put it to the official Gentoo staff. Shortly I became a developer, but after a vote it was decided that Gentoo Technologies Inc. did not want to be officially associated with my Xbox endeavours due to possible legal implications despite my attempts at keeping the project legal.
