There is no reason why questions about ebuild writing for the Sunrise overlay should not be treated equally. --snip-- Maybe i wasn't clear enough in my previous mail (which may be the reason why it was simply ignored), but while we were taken by surprise of a new project being announced and no one talking to us about where this may fit in on the forums, this FAQ entry completely ignores what i explicitely asked for in the mail above. If you want to use the forums, that's fine and they are here to help with problems, but deciding things without approaching us to find a solution that also fits into our forums structure makes me have reasonable doubts how this project will integrate into Gentoo. I actually was trying to adress your issues with that FAQ entry, sorry if you feel like I have decided something. Please give me a reasonable rewording if you think my assumption is not correct that this will be treated equally by forums users (I count me in here, that is why I made the assumption). I will of course explicitly forbid any forums activity in the FAQ when you have a problem with that. - Stefan -- gentoo-dev@gentoo.org mailing list

We have neither reason nor desire to treat sunrise ebuilds differently from other user contributed ebuilds.
