+Title: baselayout-1.x deprecation
+Author: William Hubbs <williamh@gentoo.org>
+Content-Type: text/plain
+Posted: 2012-02-14

+News-Item-Format: 1.0
+Display-If-Installed: <sys-apps/baselayout-2
+
+On 28 Jun 2011, baselayout-2.x and OpenRC were first marked stable on
+all supported architectures in Gentoo Linux.
+
+This was the point at which we stopped working on issues in baselayout-1
+and began encouraging users to upgrade to baselayout-2 and OpenRC.
+
+Although we are not supporting baselayout-1, we are supporting migration
+from baselayout-1 to OpenRC and baselayout-2.
+
+According to Gentoo policy, the support for migration from baselayout-1
+to baselayout-2 ends one year after baselayout-2 and OpenRC became
+stable. That date will be 28 Jun 2012.
+
+This news item is to inform you that you must migrate your system
+to baselayout-2 and OpenRC before 28 Jun 2012. Starting on this date, we
+will no longer support this migration, and you may need to re-install
+any systems which are still running baselayout-1.
+
+For questions about how to migrate your system, see the OpenRC migration
+guide [1].
