22 No, I've read the other threads. You've not explained how this is a critical
23 update that requires a news item. You've said repeatedly in response to
24 related questions that your experience with news for one package in one
25 overlay used by a small subset of users that uses said package recieved good
26 feedback, and that they would like to be informed of changes in the future.
27 You were informed that elog can do just that, and you said repeatedly that
28 elog is not sufficient because its not loggged by default. You could easily
29 make elog logged by default in paludis, and that would achieve the same
30 result as a news item. What did I forget?
