We decided to maintain it in an official way and thus keep an eye on the quality of the checkins. As said, at least a briefly view at it and also a repoman scan. We're going to have some contributors at it so it wouldn't be an easy job but I think we can get some more of them that way. Searched my inbox and found a mail saying this: --- Paste --- "He was trying to recruit me as a Gentoo developer. Unfortunately, I turned him down, the main reason being time. Also, I don't really need/want the status/powers/responsibilities that come with being a developer, so that was another reason. He then suggested that I become an arch-tester, or maybe contribute to this public overlay that you have in mind. The arch-tester position didn't seem that appealing to me. The public overlay on the other hand is more suitable for me. I like to write the occasional ebuild and there are some ebuilds writen by me in Bugzilla that are currently assigned to maintainer-wanted so getting these in an overlay would be nice. Also, I would assume that the barrier of entry and time requirements are lower than the developer position. --- Paste --- Sounds he likes to contribute / maintain some apps, just not the whole thing you have to do when being a full dev. But he expressed his interest in this as a possible entry point. So I guess we can keep an eye on him... But one thing is important: As the project has some overlay nature, there _may_ be the one or other small issue with it. On the other hand what ebuild is 100% bugfree? ;) QA would have nothing todo then... And here we don't break the (stable) tree if some really nasty issue ever slips through our fingers.
