1 Hello package maintainers,

4 most of the GNU packages had their LICENSE updated to GPL-3 along with
5 some minor bug fixes or even just documentation changes in recent
6 times. Please do check the LICENSE and adjust it if needed.

8 Oh, and one other thing. Attached is a list of ebuild that use
9 ftp.gnu.org instead of mirror://gnu in their SRC_URI. Please make the
10 switch. Maybe this should be a QA check as well? repoman would have all
11 the information it needed... [if HOMEPAGE matches www.gnu.org, then
12 SRC_URI should NOT match ftp.gnu.org].
