This helps not only the + Gentoo maintainers, but also upstream, to weed out any bugs in the + build system or ebuilds before a release is made to public. Or to + experiment with the official ebuilds without causing breakage to + main tree users. + + +2: Compatibility with main tree + + While the overlay doesn't have to adhere to main tree's QA + standards, it'd be most convenient in tryint to write the ebuilds + by keeping the main tree compatibility in mind. This way, + long-term, the ebuilds will be much more maintainable. + + +3: Access + + All members of the Gentoo's Mozilla project have commit access to + this repository. For other interested parties, access can be + requested via bugzilla, or by e-mailing the project directly. + + +4: External + + Please see: + https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Project:Mozilla + https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Project:Mozilla/Version_Bump_Guide + https://packages.gentoo.org/maintainer/mozilla@gentoo.org + |
