If there are no objections/corrections/criticisms, this will be committed on 2011/5/1. This includes input from several comments I received on this thread. Someone suggested that we make emerge not work until the news item is read. There is nothing I can do in openrc to make something like that happen. It would be something that would require a portage modification. Also, that wouldn't really do much for us, because someone could still read the news item, emerge the packages, then they could still end up rebooting before they follow the steps, so I don't see what something like that buys us. I still do not have a link to the front page news item. If there isn't one, should I delete the last paragraph before I commit? Also, the way you can recover if you boot your system before following the steps is mentioned in the news item now, and there's not really anything more to it, so I'm not sure where else it should be mentioned. What does everyone think?
