The extensions planned for > inclusion are SLOT dependencies (#174405), IUSE defaults (#174410), and > ECONF_SOURCE support for the default src_compile function (#179380). What about news? It has been implemented but ran into a bug (portage hadn't fully implemented the news reader, IIRC) the first time someone tried to actually deploy it. Is that too controversial or has portage still no full implementation? I'm sure you've not forgotten about it and not pressin' if it's not ready, as I agree with the "release early, release often" idea, just askin', as I've not seen anything on it in awhile and as a user, the feature would be nice to have. =8^) Or is it part of API-0 now, and implemented, just not yet used? -- Duncan - List replies preferred.
