All,
This is a formal notice to everyone that OpenRC will be hitting the
Gentoo tree sooner rather then later. I would like to see *ALL* arch
teams give the current code a whirl on their systems, which is
available via the layman module "openrc".
I would also like to give the docs team a chance to weigh in here and
work with me on a migration guide as well as any necessary updates.
That being said, I will be the primary point of contact on the
transition to OpenRC appearing in ~arch (along with it's associated
baselayout-2.0.0 ebuild). Any and all grievances, concerns,
suggestions and comments can and should be routed to me via the
associated Bugzilla entries or e-mail.
I do not want OpenRC to come as a surprise to anyone and break their
system. I expect we will leave no stone unturned and go for a very
smooth transition.
That being said, the bug for the addition of OpenRC is #212696 [1].
The bug for the documentation is #213988 [2].
Lastly, I will be out of town March 21st through March 23rd. I will
not have IRC access but I will have e-mail and Bugzilla access.

It appears my migration plan was not good enough for Mike Frysinger
<[EMAIL PROTECTED]> and he went ahead and wrote his own version of the
OpenRC ebuild, differing from the one in the OpenRC layman repo, and
committed it to the tree this weekend.
Since my offer to work on the migration was not good enough for him, I'm
backing out and allowing him to handle the whole migration himself since
I haven't heard from him at all despite Roy (author of OpenRC) and my
attempts to contact him for 2 weeks regarding a migration plan for
OpenRC. All issues and comments can be directed to him.
I guess working together and documenting everything before having it hit
the tree was a bad plan and it had to be one-upped.
