I am unfortunately not interested in participating to something that I have
no intent to even test myself before submitting. meta-oe became a monster
can which I personally would not like to deal with. That is said with
due-respect. If its goal were reconsidered and split into several small
layers, then mayhaps... But it is not there, and I am not sure if it was
any soon...

Unfortunately, this feature remains proprietary at the point of writing
this. As long as it works for me, I will not be too much bothered, although
I feel sorry for those who will need to reinvent the recipe, modulo
stabilization.
