didn't know that, so i guess the private dir should be:
private
 - infra
   - (infrapriv1).git
   - (infrapriv2).git
 - foundation
   - (foundpriv1).git
   - (foundpriv2).git
 - pr
   - ....

These DON'T belong here, they should go to project/

Well, the distinction for unofficial/official overlays happen mostly in layman 
-L, I don't think users pay attention to our git repo list. Furthermore, I got 
at least three requests from developers to move their repo from user/ to dev/ 
(same problem when devs retired). This distinction doesn't make any sense.

All of the above are *.gentoo.org subdomains

devmanual should go to website/, you are right. In project/ belongs anything 
that is not a *.g.o subdomain, and is not an overlay (SOC projects, upstream 
projects (portage, gorg, rbot*, znurt), forks (gitolite-gentoo))
