13 Our code is all available in the portage tree or ViewCVS, and so are all
14 the ebuild bugs in Bugzilla. Nobody's stopping anybody else from
15 reviewing any submissions or filing new bugs. It's just a question of
16 who makes (and therefore approves of) the actual commit.

18 I don't see where your cathedral is coming from.
