I agree. The proposal sounds like a great way of getting more
experienced users to contribute to the project, yet it still keeps the
broken/illegal/etc ebuilds written by some of our less experienced
users non-official (where official = hosted on *.gentoo.org).

I'm in favor of a overlays.g.o as the companion to planet.g.o with
selected users contributin, but I'd hate to see plain end-user
overlays hosted on *.gentoo.org.

Brix
