Thanks Stefano to ask this question.
Gentoo Devs are slow to include in portage user proposed ebuilds, but
softwares like GRASS or QGIS are too quick in development to follow
Bugzilla rules and they always aren't up-to-date in portage.

ATM, I'm thinking of opening a separate overlay for GIS stuff, which
can be used with layman. I've tried to contact gentoo-sciences herd
asking for join some ebuilds I have developed to gentoo-sciences
overlay, but without an answer.

I have 2 problems in opening right now an overlay:
* I am graduating in 2 months, so I think I cannot have the time right
now to do so;
* I'm experiencing serious problems with my ISP: I cannot download nor
load anything on the net.

If the idea sounds interesting to Gentoo users in here, I think we can
establish a mailing list to plain things more smoothly and to work it
out.

Cheers.
