25 ...is this something we (as the developer base) WANT non-dev's to be
26 able to do?? I would expect we'd want the tree to still be treated as
27 read-only-not-modifyable by the rest of the gentoo/linux community,
28 otherwise we're going to have a rather large mess on our hands
29 (multiple forks of the main tree != a uniform main tree + overlays,
30 the way it does now)
