I imagine automating updates has come up a few times here... I personally never have noticed it.. but haven't followed the group as close as I once did, and never really considered automating updates.
Is that something better left to experts? Or are there some tried and true tools available that mean a semi-dense gentoo practitioner like myself might be able to get it going? Maybe some of you can steer me toward some documentation or tools etc that help a gentoo user to do automated updates.
