If we did that, would we still need the resolution?
The way I see it is that if an ebuild is to be worked on and maintained by a particular developer/herd then it should be assigned to the relevant people as normal. If the ebuild doesn't stir up that much attention and nobody wants it, it should get reassigned to [EMAIL PROTECTED], until someone picks it up or decides that the package is not worthy of being in the portage tree. An extra resolution would not be needed. I don't see the need for a new-ebuilds alias because everything can be categorised into the above two categories (someone is going to do something with this soon, or, there is no interest from that herd/developer at the current time).
