That's possible because a) non-devs can be given commit access to the overlay's svn/a.n.other repository b) non-devs can be given create/edit access to the overlay's wiki / GuideXSL I do this already for the overlays I host on svn.gnqs.org. I can't migrate those overlays to overlays.g.o if we don't grant non-dev commit access! The confusion is probably because, in the original vision statement, I said that these things would only happen for overlays setup by, and for, official projects. I wanted a disctinction between who could commit to overlays run by projects, and who could commit to overlays run by individual developers. However, if the concensus is that we want non-devs to be able to commit to individual developer overlays too, we'll make that possible. Best regards, Stu -- gentoo-dev@gentoo.org mailing list
