12 As far as I'm aware Gentoo policy does not prevent somebody from
13 re-implementing a package that is already in Gentoo. Obviously it
14 could get pretty confusing if that happened.

16 IMO it isn't really worth worrying about, because right now the main
17 limitation seems to be a lack of people working on projects, not 25
18 devs who each want to re-implement go their own way...
