Ditto. Gentoo SoC projects need to be for Gentoo developed and sponsored
code/projects, not third party projects, no matter how much they would whither
and die without a gentoo core. There was an example of gentoo+gnome integration
(i think) in a previous email - that wouldn't be any more appropriate. Unless
there's the Gentoo Inc copyright in the header, it isn't eligible in my opinion.
