An offer: R packages in Gentoo Land?

Greetings. I love R, we run Gentoo. I want to maintain R packages in the same methods I use for the rest of them; in Gentoo this is in "the portage tree", or in "a portage overlay". I am working towards something I consider suitable for production release, and wanted to ask if there are conventional blessings which I ought to ask of the R-devel folks; How does this usually go, in R-land? Are there other developeRs who run Gentoo who would be willing to kibitz?
I'm neither an R nor a Gentoo developer but I run Gentoo and R and would welcome an integrated Portage/CRAN/Bioconductor package management system. I would recommend joining the "gentoo-science" mailing list. Email me off list if you'd like an introduction.
