Review of git namespace "gentoo" and documented ownership?

[Andreas K. Huettel]

Hello Carlos et al, 

the gentoo/* branches in sourceware glibc.git are old, these are from
before Sam and me got involved.

The current Gentoo vendor branches are on our own Gentoo git server, 

https://gitweb.gentoo.org/fork/glibc.git/

(mostly because in the beginning I had only push access there). The 
current arrangement works well for us, and I've also pulled all the old 
gentoo/* branches from sourceware and pushed them to gentoo.

So as far as we are concerned, the gentoo/* branches on sourceware
can be marked as retired (or even deleted).

Cheers,
Andreas
