I'm not opposed to what would essentially be an overlay of |
| 8 |
maintainier-wanted ebuilds, but I would actually prefer to see that |
| 9 |
happen by pulling from the bugzilla database instead of trying to |
| 10 |
replace bugzilla altogether. My reasoning is that bugzilla provides a |
| 11 |
place for community development of an ebuild (including commentary!), |
| 12 |
which would not be true of just the overlay. If one were instead to add |
| 13 |
a magical bugs whiteboard status or keyword that let a script know that |
| 14 |
there's an ebuild to pull from bugzilla that should be added to the |
| 15 |
there-be-dragons-here overlay, I'd think that would make life |
| 16 |
much simpler for everybody. |
