In this case, it's not GLEP-worthy. Perhaps the original mail could have been
more clear, so that releng would not have felt that someone was dumping more
work on them; when, in fact, Seeds can exist independently.

With the exception of some members of releng (whom I would ask to reconsider
their initial worries, now that further discussion and clarification has
ensued), no one else is noticeably concerned.

If Seeds decides they want to *make* some things happen to all/some of the
projects, maybe at that point a GLEP will be needed to address that issue. But
re-using and re-issueing existing resources doesn't warrant a GLEP. Well, maybe
infra might disagree if the tarball load gets hosted on their hardware.

But for now, it's not even a Gentoo-hosted project; seems to just be on
overlays. Quit whining.
