What is Gentoo ~arch meant to mean in layouts/index.html? #52

Hi,

I've noticed on L131-136 of layouts/index.html that it says:

... a geeky Gentoo ~arch system or ...

and I can't help but to ask what is meant by Gentoo ~arch? Is it meant to denote a hybrid between Gentoo and Arch Linux, or was it a reference to the ~arch terminology used by Portage keyword fields. By the ~arch terminology I mean, for example, that adding ACCEPTED_KEYWORDS=~amd64 (where arch is amd64 in this case) to one's /etc/portage/make.conf file and running emerge -uDU --with-bdeps=y @world will turn one's x86-64 Gentoo or Sabayon system into a bleeding-edge operating system.

Thanks for your time, Brenton

In my understanding ~arch refers to portage's use of it.
