aha!  It works :) and I'm not alone :)

So, to catch you up on the goings on lately...


We now have an overlay, ... gentoo-guis, for live ebuilds of our guis
projects and guis related projects.   It isn't in the main list yet, but
soon.
http://git.overlays.gentoo.org/gitweb/?p=proj/gentoo-guis.git;a=summary

After not hearing from sping, I forked layman, started overlord to keep
working on the rewrites and the api I did last year.  
http://git.overlays.gentoo.org/gitweb/?p=proj/overlord.git;a=summary
I rewrote the cli to use the new api, that was a 20-35% speed up, and
some other changes, improvements to the api,...

 That lasted a about week.  As of last night, I am the main dev/admin on
layman.  sping did another release last night with any fixes, etc..
Layman has been moved to
http://git.overlays.gentoo.org/gitweb/?p=proj/layman.git;a=summary
instead of SourceForge for development.  Transfered it all to me.  So
now I have to port all my changes back to laymans codebase, not much of
a base change, but... 
I added an irc data field to the repository info, so now I have to work
on
http://git.overlays.gentoo.org/gitweb/?p=proj/repositories-xml-format.git;a=summary

project as well to add that addition to the gentoo infra tools that
validate, etc..

Wizzleby and I are collaborating on making kde and gtk fontends for
overlord/layman.  Your welcome to join in if you have time.  Your input
would be appreciated.  I think I would call the frontends overlord
still.  I really like that name :)


Anyway, it's good to hear from you :D
