Would moving it from overlays.g.o to overlays.dev.g.o, overlays.experimental.dev.g.o help ? It could then be viewed officially unofficial as the tinderboxing repository's I've been working on. Personally I know I would like to have a place to park pic, iconv, nls patches in testing, and embedded-kernels that are say vital for some devices but for one reason or another should not be in the official tree. > If the project proves to be healthy and not affect the reputation of > Gentoo in a bad way, we could consider adopting it as an official > project after a period of time.
