    +Hello, The Gentoo Team would like to firstly thank you for your ebuild 
    +submission. Unfortunatly it is possible that your ebuild might not reach the portage
    +tree in a timely manner. There are simply too many new packages.
    +
    +Allow me to use this opportunity to introduce you to Gentoo Sunrise. The 
    +sunrise overlay[1] is a overlay for Gentoo which we allow trusted users to 
    +commit to and all users can have ebuilds reviewed by Gentoo devs for entry 
    +into the overlay. So, the sunrise team is suggesting that you look into this 
    +and submit your ebuild to the overlay where even *you* can commit to. =)
    +
    +Thanks.
