I've already answered that several times. No, I've read the other threads. You've not explained how this is a critical update that requires a news item. You've said repeatedly in response to related questions that your experience with news for one package in one overlay used by a small subset of users that uses said package recieved good feedback, and that they would like to be informed of changes in the future. You were informed that elog can do just that, and you said repeatedly that elog is not sufficient because its not loggged by default. You could easily make elog logged by default in paludis, and that would achieve the same result as a news item. What did I forget? -- gentoo-dev@gentoo.org mailing list
