Having new blockers come up on an arch box when attempting to update is a little worrysome. Or having a new way of doing things (such as the inevitable move to udev in lieu of devfs). The things that I would hope to see in such an announcement would be a suitable upgrade path, reason for change, and a link to gentoo-dev discussion if available. --=20 Regards, Lisa Seelye Key fingerprint =3D 09CF 52D6 B82B 72B9 97A7 601B CB46 B556 1E49 6FC5 --=-rERIvEecNvTNmXk3Ejoj Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name=signature.asc Content-Description: This is a digitally signed message part -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.6 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQBBOJdTy0a1Vh5Jb8URAtGxAKCofXnVYCXeNarpZ+oCQTkEgynDwQCffFoX uoA1eAlKS8nLbqbT7NNVSdk= =uKIs -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --=-rERIvEecNvTNmXk3Ejoj--
