From: Tim Boudreau To: Gentoo Developers Content-Type: multipart/alternative; boundary=f46d043891bd90c73604fc4abae4 X-Archives-Salt: df93b3c4-67e6-48ef-ad35-33e2f198720b X-Archives-Hash: 1ed7b44efd58d3ec961d060c39053752 --f46d043891bd90c73604fc4abae4 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Apologies if this is the wrong place to ask or if it's in some FAQ I've missed. I have an overlay set up here https://github.com/timboudreau/gentoo with a number of generally useful things in it (etcd, statsd, flatbuffers, ebuilds for some fonts available from dafont.com and some X themes). For my own use I just add http://timboudreau.com/files/repositories.xml to my layman.cfg, but I'd prefer to make it part of the official list of overlays. Per the instructions there, I sent email to the address listed on gpo.zugaina.org; after several months, no response; tried tweeting about with a few hashtags I though might bring it to notice of someone in the know; no response there either. Some of these are stable, and I'd be happy to maintain them as official packages if that's of interest - but probably as I'm new to this list, it's best to start with just getting the overlay available. Any pointers on where to look if there's a process for this appreciated!
