I know that, and I am not against migrating either. And tuxfamily do
have git and mercurial too. But, I want to have a good raison to
migrate. A migration imply work to do, that is time that will not be
used to make something else. And in many cases, a migration imply
also a loose of data like the historic.

And to have to manage send commits from other peoples is not what I
call a good raison. Again, I don't have the time for that.

For peoples not sure of their ebuilds, it is far better to make bug
reports with their ebuilds. That way, their ebuilds will be commented
and they will hopefully learn to make better ebuilds.

For peoples reasonably sure of their ebuilds, the best is when they get
commit access. And it will be the same problem in any case: for what
I know, only evermind and gimpel can give this access right to the
maintainers. But this is not so hard. When I begun as maintainer with
this overlay, we was 4 or 5 guys including gimpel and evermind. Today,
we are twenty with commit access to the svn. The last one is
nwmatt (Matt Henley), the guy that started this subject.

Welcome on board Matt! And thanks for helping!

That's right, even if I don't use it ofen. That way, they are also sure
they work will not be "lost" in the archive of this list.
