10 As a common user with ADSL 256kbps all additional data downloaded via
11 rsync causes longer wait for syncing. If I want to see a changelog i go
12 to packages.gentoo.org and read it. As i got Gentoo for about 10 months
13 I don't remember if I read Changelog via bash.

15 It is quite important thing at this time as Gentoo Dev's plan to add
16 news messages adding to portage which also will be synced (as I recon).
