Our users are our biggest base of testers, and the point of overlays is |
| 8 |
to develop and test, so of course one of the goals is to get overlays |
| 9 |
onto users' (testers') machines. Making testing as easy as possible is |
| 10 |
important. But it should be clear that it is testing, and if the apps |
| 11 |
were ready for the real Portage tree, they'd be in it. |
