It's not irrelevant; you're just not reading it properly. You might notice that metadata.xml contains tags other than <herd>, like, say, <maintainer>. In the example that sparked this, <herd> is games and <maintainer> the individual dev who maintains it. Simple enough, no? A herd has always been a group of packages for as long as I can recall, which is about two years now. It's nothing new at all. Packages in that herd can be maintained by a developer or a project, or by the group of herd maintainers if there are no specific arrangements. -- gentoo-dev@gentoo.org mailing list
