It would be very useful for people who aren't devs but only if they have access to the repository. It would also be useful for devs to have a standard way of publishing their testing/development portage overlays. On the first point, would any of the alternative SCMs prove to be better than CVS resource wise for providing anonymous access to users? It might also be useful to facilitate non-devs contributing patches to the tree - rather than posting files into bugzilla they could point towards whereever they publish their current tree (or changes), and developers can then work with their changes directly instead of the bugzilla upload/download dance we do now. -- gentoo-dev@gentoo.org mailing list
