what does the games team think of an official games repository?

These are some arguments for such a repo:
* sunrise does not allow ebuilds when any version is already in the
tree (so no live or beta ebuilds for existing in-tree-games), so that
is not always a real alternative
* easier contribution and reviews
* let people contribute proprietary games ebuilds here which cannot be
added to the tree, because no dev owns the game
* let people contribute alpha/beta/live/experimental ebuilds here
* deprecate repositories like "gamerlay" which do not undergo any kind
of review and have low quality
* some of the work here can directly flow into the tree
* less decentralization of games ebuilds when there is a central
overlay for contribution and testing
* a lot of other herds already practice this workflow with success


Yes, overlays suck. But bugzilla as a review platform sucks more and
IRC is also not the first place people look for.
