It is my understanding the the Sunrise overlay is not open to "anyone to |
| 27 |
commit", so it is not a contrib/ The sunrise project is the owner of |
| 28 |
the overlay and they are responsible for it's contents. The people |
| 29 |
commiting are responsible for what they commit. The point of the |
| 30 |
Sunrise project as I understand it is to aid in the development of |
| 31 |
ebuilds in maintainer-wanted, such that they may improve and be added to |
| 32 |
the tree; as well as to give frequent 'not quite a dev' and 'I don't |
| 33 |
have a bunch of time but would like to help' people a place to commit to. |
