You should have brought up the idea for the Sunricers project on this mailing for discussion instead of just going ahead and implementing it. Personally, I dislike the idea of having officially supported (read: hosted on *.gentoo.org infrastructure) overlays for unmaintained ebuilds for which nobody did any real quality assurance. I fear this will drag Gentoo back into the old-ages of having a reputation of a ricer-distribution; a reputation I for one have worked very hard to get rid of during the past 2 years. Please put this project on hold until is has been discussed properly on this mailing list.
