I'm saying that /usr/portage/news should be the *official* source where=20 users should go to find the info. http://erata.g.o would be a secondary=20 source, that while officially supported, is not the main source.=20 The reason is that errata.g.o would not be able to offer the same user=20 experience as emerge --news would. errata.g.o does NOT know about the=20 local system (nor should it), and thus might be bloated with unneeded=20 information.
