That seems to be rather missing the point. Why are you going out of your
way to make a distinction between:

- contributing ebuilds that would otherwise not be present in ::gentoo
  at all

- helping fix issues in existing ebuilds that are part of ::gentoo and
  need to be kept in good working order

Both are valid ways to demonstrate a commitment to collaboratively
improving the Gentoo project. The one you *didn't* mention is easier to
do, though, so I'd probably suggest trying that first.

I think it's a very fair assessment to make that this thread is quite
hostile to the Gentoo Developers as a whole, and hostile behavior
towards the Gentoo Developers does indeed strike a chord.

I am not completely sure why you find it important or desirable to
highlight the fact that you elicit strong negative emotions in others,
mind you. But I'm sure you have very good reasons for it.
