If you just want a simple solution for your own, do a  file with the
overlay stuff in it:

e.g.
<layman>
    <overlay type="rsync"
src="rsync://example.net/private-portage-overlay"
contact="[EMAIL PROTECTED]" name="private-overlay">
    <link>
        http://example.net/Private Portage Overlay
    </link>
<description>some usefull patches and progs</description>
</overlay>
</layman>

and provide it at you webservice :
http://www.example.net/private-overlay.xml

than edit /etc/layman/layman.cfg locally:

overlays  : http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/overlays/layman-global.txt
                   http://www.example.net/private-overlay.xml


The last thing you need is

$ layman -L && layman -a private-overlay

. Viola !!
