Thank you for the opportunity. Apparently though, my submissions have
already been rejected Ciaran. It's important to realize that the
submissions were intended to AID the developers, not to necessarily be
PERFECT in every way.

I submitted the ebuilds in good faith in the hope they would help myself
and others get the portage tree wrt ROX up to date and correct
breakages. In that my "spacing" was not liked, or my "descriptions" were
too long is irrelevant.

The ebuilds are fine, and they work. You are welcome to them. As for
future development, due to possible problems with the rox.eclass, I am
taking rox off-line from gentoo and will maintain it separate from
gentoo.

As for any open bugs, I leave it to maintainer-wanted. Good luck.
