Hi once again

  From all the responses ;) just wondering if this feature is being
developed and/or supported. Should I put time into extending the portage
code on this or is it being dropped? I do have a need for this feature
and need to make a decision as to where to spend my time and efforts
(maybe rpm building in a separate project?).
  I would like know if the portage maintainers would be interested in
patches. 

PS.
I do apologize if this sounds pushy or rude, it's not intended to be ;)
