Hi,

Following the request of Grzegorz to have binary packages and my reply
with a Gentoo package that builds SableVM out of the staging branch
(see: http://sablevm.org/lists/sablevm-devel/2004-November/000238.html),
I made this request to have it in the official tree:
http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=72988

I got a reply that there will be an unofficial java experimental tree
in Gentoo suitable for these non-release packages.

So the question is about bug handling, Gentoo does not want to handle
subversion builds bugs.  I thought about adding a message saying to file
bugs directly to http://sablevm.org/bugs and use "staging" for the
version.  What do you think?  I volunteer to fix any problems
originating from the package itself, if any occur.  Do we want to
handle bugs report from Gentoonians?

I guess a mention that it was built using the Gentoo package could be
added to --version.
