I guess what I mean is these outside developers could continue

branch, but putting it in writing would make things clearer for
prospective repo maintainers.
OK, then I think that it would be a good idea to have a gentoo-ci
branch, or similar, if the assumption is merely that this is where
Gentoo developers will look when evaluating your repository.
Ok, if we go this route, here is a basic simple question. Why can't the
"gentoo-ci" be a package, or group of packages that runs in a private
persons own resources, regardless it is a single gentoo server or a
small cluster (openstack)? That way, those gentoo-ciruns can be
performed by the proxy or the author thus reducing the workload for QA
or other devs. I guess what I'm really asking is/will the gentoo-ci be
packaged up for the gentoo community to use, on a small set of packages?
Is that idea too difficult at this time?
Is there even a glep, or standard or part of PMS that will allow the
gentoo-ci solution to become a routine tool for all to use?
