Personally I think you're just going a bit wild by closing the bug reports as
wont fix and expecting users to fix them. That's part of developers job, if
someone takes into account adding an ebuild to the official tree, isn't it?!
While I can understand your motivation, I'd like to know if your doing is
backed up by at least an informal decision (didn't follow the threads which
resulted in the maintainer* aliases, etc.), because we have enough whining
guys, who don't understand that our ressources are limited. Caring for the
quality of stuff, that is not part of the official tree is only bad PR, but
not a win for us, imho.
