Using your example, if it will *never* make it into the tree, then what is it doing on *.gentoo.org infrastructure? The authors are more than welcome to host this on their own. There's absolutely zero reason for us to "support" it in any way, including our infrastructure, if there's absolutely no way that it will *ever* make it into the tree. -- Chris Gianelloni Release Engineering - Strategic Lead x86 Architecture Team Games - Developer Gentoo Linux
