I'm not opposed to what would essentially be an overlay of maintainier-wanted ebuilds, but I would actually prefer to see that happen by pulling from the bugzilla database instead of trying to replace bugzilla altogether. My reasoning is that bugzilla provides a place for community development of an ebuild (including commentary!), which would not be true of just the overlay. If one were instead to add a magical bugs whiteboard status or keyword that let a script know that there's an ebuild to pull from bugzilla that should be added to the there-be-dragons-here overlay, I'd think that would make life much simpler for everybody. -g2boojum- -- Grant Goodyear Gentoo Developer [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.gentoo.org/~g2boojum GPG Fingerprint: D706 9802 1663 DEF5 81B0 9573 A6DC 7152 E0F6 5B76
