First "quick step" would be to put them on gentoo-alt overlay for the first |
| 9 |
rounds, I thought we already discussed that. |

Remember the past with other devs ranting because stuff was shoved into the |
| 12 |
tree without enough testing, or with an audience so limited that likely |
| 13 |
nobody would use them. |

They should get into the tree at some point, but for the first stages they are |
| 16 |
better to be tested outside it. |

About categories... a sys-* category is not the case... qt-mac would probably |
| 19 |
fill into dev-libs as there's not a precise category for it (x11-libs carries |
| 20 |
the x11 versions). |
| 21 |
That unless someone wants to find all the gui-libs that can work without x11 |
| 22 |
and move all of them in a gui-libs category :) |

P.S.: a wxMac ebuild shouldn't be difficult to prepare, either.. when I wrote |
| 26 |
wxlib eclass I had that in mind... |
