As expected, CI checks complained about me being the sole maintainer

Of the three packages you mentioned, milter-regex (not regex-milter) is
the only one with a name that actually contains "milter"
The mail-filter/milter-regex ebuild already uses user/group 'milter',
and for the currently open bump to version 2.7 I'd like to claim GID/UID

GID/UID 334 is already taken for OpenDKIM, even though the list has
unfortunately not yet been updated.
See

I'd like to reserve GID/UID 334 for mail-filter/opendkim (see QA bug

Arch and Fedora apparently don't have reserved IDs for OpenDKIM, and 334
is unclaimed in Gentoo.

the process of becoming a Gentoo developer
Looking at the number of open pull requests (some of them my own), I
wonder if Gentoo has become a bit of a victim of its own success as far
as contributions are concerned.
Is there any way I could help the Gentoo team? Any vacancies that need
to be filled, or work that needs to be done?
