I'm starting to put together a portage/stable server configuration for a large |
| 9 |
number of gentoo VM's that will eventually be hosted on a VMware ESX 4.1U1 |
| 10 |
cluster - with the goal of limiting major changes to once/year and otherwise |
| 11 |
only applying security/minimum necessary updates. I doubt it will be easy but |
| 12 |
I'm doing my best at it :) |

As part of that I'm maintaining on github several related repositories, |
| 15 |
including portage mask/use/config files, cluster management utilities, etc. |

I'm not currently planning to utilize a separate overlay for packages/ebuilds, |
| 24 |
but it's not out of the question. |

I'd be happy to work with any other devs w/ similiar interests or production |
| 27 |
networks to manage.....github makes group development relatively easy. |
