Yes, the title doesn't say a thing why would anyone want to read this |
| 10 |
news item or not. |

Showing this news on all old and new Gentoo systems makes little sense. |
| 18 |
Either someone is newly affected, then Display-if should determine it, |
| 19 |
or someone is *not* newly affected, then you're either telling him |
| 20 |
something he already knows or something that is of little value to him. |

News items should be precisely this -- news. Not random pieces of |
| 23 |
information you've just discovered and want to share with everyone. |
| 24 |
This is what documentation is about, and it should be in some kernel- |
| 25 |
related piece of documentation (handbook?) and not scattered around |
| 26 |
in news items. |
