12 Shouldn't that just be scripted via pybugz? A GUI for that would be nice;
13 perhaps as a pida[1] module. Frankly it appals me that y'all have so much
14 time to write bash scriptlets and none to develop tools for your own use.

20 Who cares? It's more organisation than you have now, and as I understand
21 Duncan's suggestion it's first about adding a category above pkgs within
22 Ebuilds <foo> (though I think he mixed up interface and tables a bit, sorry
23 Duncan ;) Tree is the most fundamental work, besides portage. I guess a tag
24 cloud would be nice tho. No reason you can't build associated metadata
25 webapps on another host (cf beandog's portage postgres db[2].)
