Well, I consider gnome-base/ to be gnome@g.o's "territory" in sense that I'd contact the team prior to adding a ebuild there Likewise I consider both, xfce-base/ and xfce-extra/ as well as anything with xfce@g.o in metadata.xml to be xfce@g.o's "territory" in sense that I'd be slightly annoyed if someone adds/modifies/... an Xfce ebuild without consulting me (or angelos). But, if it's done properly, like hasufell added properly added xfce4-whiskermenu-plugin to xfce-extra/, I'll stay quiet, because it wouldn't achieve anything to complain about something you would have added _exactly_ the same way line-by-line Likewise I consider kde-base/ to be kde@g.o's "territory" And I'm sure the tree has more of these...
