100%. Rich's suggestions with regards to documenting a "here's how you |
| 13 |
build a container that can be air-dropped onto gentoo infra and booted, |
| 14 |
and incrementally updated on request" process would possibly go a long |
| 15 |
way with all of this. |

Random devs can band together, build some GitFoo container, get it |
| 18 |
working Gud(TM), and petition Infra to deploy it (probably in some |
| 19 |
semi-official "this is just an 'speriment" namespace till it ossifies) |
| 20 |
|

Making the Infra side DeadEasy(TM), and the contributor side |
| 22 |
DeadEasy(TM) reduces all the real friction points beyond politics. |
