I fully agree with this statement.  I am behind the adoption of the GLEP only if it does what (I originally believed) was its purpose...to get CRITICAL news regarding package upgrades..etc.  If a user wants to know what's going on with the developers..they can subscribe to this -dev list.  If a user wants to know how to NOT break his system by performing an 'emerge -u world' portage should tell them.
