As of a few minutes ago a portage-2.2 test release is finally available for public consumption. This is a test release (somewhere between alpha and beta I'd say), NOT a release candidate, so expect a few rough edges and not always up2date/complete documentation. Please see the shipped NEWS and RELEASE-NOTES for changes from the 2.1 series, and check bugs.gentoo.org before reporting issues in #gentoo-portage. Note for Ebuild developers: This test release includes a partially rewritten version of repoman that's not heavily tested, so do not use it for committing anything to the tree and double check its reports with other tools or a 2.1 version.
