Sorry, but I'd hardly call _your_ experience with paludis overlay users a reliable indicator that g42 news are superior to elog for Gentoo at large.

Even if you observed it in a few other cases still doesn't make it true in the general case. Marius -- Public Key at http://www.genone.de/info/gpg-key.pub In the beginning, there was nothing.
