I've installed gentoo and I must say that I'm very pleased whith it.
Marvelous job.
But there's still one feature I'm missing and which regards the update
procedure: wouldn't it be nice if we could upgrade from one version of a
package to another by only downloading the diff? A few days before I've
installed mozilla-1.0, today I emerged 1.0.1. But I had to download the
entire 1.0.1 archive, instead of only a diff file. For people with a
limited internet access this would be a really great feature.
Does anyone know, is such an improvement planned?
Anyway, marvelous job, a great 10x.
Leon
