Dear all, 

once upon a time I thought it was a good idea to have FreeCAD (and its rdeps 
pivy and opencascade) in the Gentoo tree. However, this turned out to be 
painful, especially since I'm not really working with it anymore.

(pivy is dead upstream and does not build with gcc-4.7, opencascade is a HUGE 
library set maintained by a company with a community fork by now, all is 
rather, err, interesting code and build systems. License situation is 
complicated.)

If you're interested, please pick the packages up; otherwise I'll drop all 
three packages to maintainer-needed in a few days.

Cheers, 
Andreas
