Hello, The Gentoo Team would like to firstly thank you for your ebuild 
submission. We also apologize for not being able to accommodate you 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,
On behalf of the Gentoo Sunrise Team,
Michael.

Since I'm using this package, I'd like to be a maintainer of it.

x11 team,
Could I set herd to "x11" for this package?

It might be worth considering xf86-input-mtrack (bug 364033) instead. The mtrack driver is an actively maintained fork of multitouch.

If you don't mind x11 occasionally touching your package, feel free to add us.

Thanks, I'll try mtrack.
