Hi,
I'm the author of bashlibs - general library framework and libraries for
bash programing.
I have created new overlay for bash libraries.
https://github.com/kfirlavi/bashlibs/tree/master/gentoo/portage
How do I publish it via layman or eix-remote?
Regards,
Kfir

Generally file a bug in bugzilla asking the overlay team to add it.
Please supply all the info needed for creating the xml to add. You
could also pre-fill out the xml definition and attach it. Don't forget
to include all urls available, github can do git and http protocols.
See the layman's man page for instructions on creating an xml defintion.

Github doesn't seem to have a way to have a binary repository and serve
single files.
Heroku maybe?

Single files - not sure (maybe a raw URL?).
However, any tag in Github can be downloaded as a tarball with a
constant md5. I often use this feature when I have to have a SRC_URI
for an upstream that doesn't provide tarballs. I just mirror them in
Github and point to the mirror (the alternative is a masked scm
ebuild, or a lot of manual tarball manipulation and hosting on
dev.g.o).

Note that gitweb also offers snapshot links. Many upstream gitwebs
have that feature enabled, saving even the work of mirroring to github.
