I might sound like a broken CD here, but why define the expiration as part of the news format instead of specifying it in the package manager as a user defined variable? Various use cases requires different treatment, so leaving it up to user seems more relevant to me, and we could allow information to be presented as part of stages to give a hint for what dates to look for? -- Kristian Fiskerstrand OpenPGP keyblock reachable at hkp://pool.sks-keyservers.net fpr:94CB AFDD 3034 5109 5618 35AA 0B7F 8B60 E3ED FAE3
