I'd like to third it. Overlays are a great way for people (users and |
| 26 |
devs alike) to try their hand maintaining their own Portage tree. It's |
| 27 |
great practice and it gives you a single place to reference for people |
| 28 |
who are using your ebuilds. |

If it gets formally into layman, I believe our bugzy will cover you, |
| 31 |
too, in case you don't want to use github. I'd ask infra just to be sure. |

Overlays for Gentoo are comparable to Debian's and Ubuntu's PPAs and are |
| 34 |
similarly simple to install/use/delete. |
