net-misc is the perfect example of why additional categories are a *good* |

idea. Not only is it difficult to see what's available, but places like that |
| 7 |
simply become a huge dumping ground for unmaintained ebuilds. |

If Portage supporting arbitrary-depth category trees, then we could organise |
| 10 |
things a lot easier. But until that happens, devs are going to have to |
| 11 |
accept the need for more directories in /usr/portage. |
