8 One remark from a "proxy-maintainer" view:
9
10 A proxy-maintainer (like me) cannot commit or add github pull requests for 
11
12 https://gitweb.gentoo.org/data/api.git/tree/files/uid-gid.tx
13
14 and therefore cannot allocate a valid UID/GID for valid new ebuilds in
15 pull requests.
16
17 So for proxy-maintained packages which need acct-user/acct-group ebuilds
18 this must be
19
20 - either done like before - announcement on the gentoo-dev ML, then
21 committed by ???
22
23 - or done by a member of the proxy-maintainers group.

25
26 Maybe you find the time to refine that exception in the documentation.
