This is something ribosome and I discussed quite so= me=20 time ago, and I recently set up an SVN repository and a trac site for it. http://gentooscience.org/ Our two herd testers and I have commit access to it right now. Any other=20 science herd members are welcome to accounts (please email me off list to g= et=20 it set up). It is in the early stages and so I am open to suggestions. I was considering the possibility of using a repo specific keyword in ebuil= ds=20 such as ~sci so that any herd testers and/or users can add that to their=20 ACCEPT_KEYWORDS in /etc/make.conf (as well as maintaining normal keyword=20 practices). The intention is to add stuff to the repo for testing before it= =20 is ready to go into portage. Some stuff that we just can't maintain for=20 whatever reason could possibly end up in their more permanently too. It provides a great way to train herd testers in a safer (than the main=20 portage tree) repository and develop ebuilds more interactively. Once stuff= =20 is moved into the portage tree it should of course be deleted from the=20 repository. I would welcome any feedback you guys might have. It is pretty easy to chec= k=20 out a copy of it and keep it up to date - I put instructions on the site. B= e=20 warned that the ebuilds in the overlay will generally be more experimental= =20 and may need work. Tickets can be opened for ebuilds in the overlay, but ne= w=20 ebuilds and bugs on ebuilds in portage should still be reported in the norm= al=20 way through bugzilla. When ebuilds are added to the overlay the bug will ha= ve=20 a comment added with words to that effect.
