[gentoo-dev] Maintaining an ebuild

[Fredrik Tolf]

Hi List!

This is probably a FAQ, but I really couldn't find the answer. I've
STFW'd, RTFM'd and RTFDeveloper's Handbook, but I still have no answer.

The thing is, I've got a li'l program of mine that I'd like to have in
portage. I've written an ebuild and all (which works with
PORTDIR_OVERLAY), but I have no idea if I can maintain it myself in
portage (and, in that case, how I would acquire the permission for that)
or if I have to ask someone on the inside to do it for me (and, in that
case, who I should ask).

Flame me all you want, but please point out where it says at the same
time. ;-)
