He's not leading it. He's writing parts of it under my lead, despite
the fact that he's probably better qualified technically than I am to
lead it.

Nope. He's documenting the existing situation for package manager
interoperability. Wherever PMS goes against existing practise it's been
discussed either on -dev or with the portage developers past and
present. Again, he's not influencing future direction this way.
