7 Well, the other overlays at overlays.gentoo.org will primarily be
8 team/herd specific overlays as I understand it - overlays maintained
9 by the people managing the ebuilds.

11 If a bug ticks in about, say, a KDE related ebuild it will be assigned
12 to the KDE herd - who are in a much better position to know whether or
13 not this bug might be caused by something available in their project
14 overlay, since they're the ones who put it there in the first place.
