If my light bulb is glowing correctly, this is VERY neat. It's neat that portage will tell me there is a news item and then I can go look. Something I just thought of tho. I usually sync this way: eix-sync && emerge -uvDNf world then go to bed. I'm going to assume that message is going to be after eix syncs but before it does the fetch thing. Would that be correct? If so, I need to check for the news before I go with the update. If not, then that is cool too. Dale :-) :-) P. S. I subscribe to -announce. Why don't they use that to announce new features so we know? It could be send only with no replies allowed.
