I had not seen that - that's wonderful! I would just request that /packages/ is removed from the start of package URLs. I understand how this makes request routing more complicated, but I consider it a significant usability improvement. ..anyway: > I'm suggesting of adding a new metadata flag to our Wiki's > User:/Project: page which then prints a message to this page saying > whether the maintainer (be it project or user), "accepts" or "deals > with" Github contributions.

I think this is a very good feature. If I ever do become a proper Gentoo developer I will certainly not spend any time on anything to do with GitHub, and in my current position of occasional contributor I don't either. The workflow imposed by GitHub isn't good and it's important to demonstrate other methods. //Peter
