dev-libs/libmemcache  #ok
dev-libs/libmemcached #so
dev-vcs/git           #I will need help with this 600+ line ebuild...
net-analyzer/sslsniff #zerochaos seems to have this as well, I can
co-maintain :D
net-misc/ifenslave    #I'll take it
net-misc/memcached    #And this
sys-auth/nss_ldap     #and this
sys-block/fio         #...
sys-power/nut         #wellnow
sys-power/pmtools     #I ran out of things to say

I will be taking these unless someone wants to yell at me (tomorrow or
so).  I welcome all help :P
