It's ridiculous. It's being said, if I wish to be a developer, I need to do something like porting a software into gentoo and write an ebuild and get accepted, while in the 'writing ebuild' handbook it's said to write ebuilds I first checkout current gentoo-x86, and you told me to checkout gentoo-x86 I need to be a developer.

You don't need cvs access to write ebuilds, only to commit them. You can write ebuilds and test them in overlay and then submit them via bugzilla for review. -- Ciaran McCreesh : Gentoo Developer (Vim, Fluxbox, shell tools) Mail: ciaranm at gentoo.org Web : http://dev.gentoo.org/~ciaranm pgpQuRtnhUTLo.pgp Description: PGP signature

Note if you're not used to V.C.S.'s :: you can get tings without *officially* checking them out. There are instructions for the Gentoo version of this somewhere, I suppose. rgh.

Not sure if this will help at all, but I came across this article today. Towards the end, it briefly discusses how to create ebuilds for Gentoo: http://www.linuxjournal.com/article/7438 -Hani -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
