Of course, I just wanted to have some feedback first before publishing it. You would also have to provide the portage_overlay.tar.bz2 tarball somewhere (and add the link to the HOWTO) otherwise the HOWTO is pretty useless. Maybe I put the tarball on my website myself and try to keep it up to date (or use a SVN repo instead), but that depends on if there are actually Gentoo users out there that use this overlay and if I have the time to maintain it properly. I would prefer if someone who is actively using Gentoo, to take over the maintainership of this files. As you know I'm a Debian user and did this Gentoo ebuild just for fun.
