Well, it can make sense if you're actually actively testing it and |
19 |
having it in tree offers convenience when doing so, but generally it |
20 |
should be reserved for cases where it really is actively being tested, |
21 |
and isn't simply sitting around. Then you actually have some kind of |
22 |
roadmap to general release. This is far less disruptive than sticking |
23 |
an ebuild in ~arch when all you know is that it builds. |

I can't vouch for what is going on in this case. |
