Yeah right. Have you had a look at the ebuilds currently assigned to
maintainer-wanted? I count maybe three dozen out of six hundred that
pass basic QA checks. The tree is already full of crap, do you want to
lower the bar even further?

Face it, ebuild writing is *not* an easy job, and getting as many
things into the tree as possible is a stupid goal. I'd rather see a
tree half the size that was properly maintained than a huge and
unusable tree.

Or would you like to trust anyone who can stick their hand in the air
with root access to your box? Because that's what you're proposing.
