5 that's cool, but imho there should be some way to leverage
6 bugs.gentoo.org by integrating both. i think it would be an
7 overkill having a separate "ebuild repository", it should rather
8 be kept central.

10 probably a simple link like
11
12 http://bugs.gentoo.org/buglist.cgi?component=Ebuilds
13
14 (add your date constraints)
15
16 would be sufficient if we just agreed on a standardized way how
17 ebuild submissions (and error reports) have to be made. this
18 could be done by "forcing" a formatted summary field. e.g. for
19 ebuild submissions:
20
21 ${P} ${DESCRIPTION}
22
23 this would be suitable for most users (as gentoo mainly targets
24 developers/professionals and as the ebuild names are usually
25 self-explanatory). disclaimer: i do not know whether forcing
26 field formats is possible with bugzilla. a voting feature
27 would be nice too.
