I've added ppds and startup-notification to the default USE for the |
| 15 |
newly-created x86 development profiles for 2007.1, which I'd ask people |
| 16 |
to base any change requests on, rather than the 2007.0 profiles. |
| 17 |
Basically, if it isn't in the 2007.1 profile and you want it, ask for it |
| 18 |
on gentoo-releng. If we think we need more discussion on a particular |
| 19 |
USE flag, we'll bring it back here. |

One thing to remember, I do *not* consider our desktop profiles to be |
| 22 |
"opt-in" but rather to be a good out-of-box experience for the user. If |
| 23 |
you want to think of the desktop profiles as bloated, feel free to use |
| 24 |
the versioned profile (like 2007.0) instead, as it will be much closer |
| 25 |
to the opt-in idea and only has USE flags which are common between |
| 26 |
desktops and servers and are much less likely to get additional flags |
| 27 |
added to them, since I want these to be as minimal as possible while |
| 28 |
still providing important functionality. |
