Hi,

I'd like to keep several configurations.
Is it possible to setup additional "sets" like MyWorld,...
in addition to "world" and say  "emerge MyWorld" ?

This for a hint,

you can create a (meta-)ebuild that doesn't install anything but
depends on the packages you want to have in such a set. You can then
put that ebuild into a portage overlay. An example would be the
xorg-x11 ebuild (which admittedly does a few extra things you can
simply omit).
