I was trying to work together with the docs guys, the GMN peoples, the 
release engineering people, and our arch teams. However, Mike "The 
Decider" Frysinger does not want to work with everyone and has chosen to 
do his own thing. It just sucked the fun right out of the project for me 
and made it disinteresting in a heart beat.

I had the fun of trying his ebuild out on one of my machines this 
morning and it happily broke my stable amd64 install.

I would give you information if I was in possession of any.... Mike has 
still yet to reply to anyone's attempts to contact him.
