Probably because no one mentored them on how to fix these QA issues. |

Otherwise... if that's attitude, then that's just sad and has to be |
| 10 |
fixed by those who run that overlay (review, contribution guidelines). |

And I still think that the top 1 reason people run an overlay is because |
| 13 |
it's easier than contributing directly. |
| 14 |
A lot of overlay maintainers I tried to convince on getting more |
| 15 |
involved even said that. |

Even sunrise workflow has proven too slow and cumbersome... look at the |
| 18 |
commit history, it's constantly decreasing. |

Sure, reasons may vary, but there is not much positive to say about |
| 21 |
current gentoo workflow. |
