4 When I recieve updates of ebuilds... I am usually curious whats new to
5 checkout (I am sure everybody is).
6 I always do emerge -u --deep world -p --changelog
7 But more often than not... chang log says "version bump" which doesnt
8 tellme anything.
9 Is it feasible to add a url to the release note of the release (in cases
10 where its not an ebuild bugfix release).
11 I dont know if there anything to do about it.. but I see gnome.org as
12 the homepage of all components so its not easy atall to find out what a
13 perticular component does.

15 Hope this Helps
