So what iss the alternative? maintainer-wanted@ is really
unsatisfactory for people that want to contribute. Do you think
someone will just commit all his work?

I think we should either give cvs access to everyone who wants to
contribute or define some standard way where developers can review
contributed ebuilds and fix them so that they can get into portage
easily. And actualy get into portage or some kind of repo and not the
bugzilla.

But as defining new ways to distribute/review ebuilds is not so easy I
think it is atm best to let everyone take the quizes and use cvs who
wants to contribute ebuilds to gentoo.

So who wants to mentro him? :)

Forrest, where are the ebuilds anyway so that we can have a look at them?

Stefan
