Neil, |

Do you know of a source for the unsupported & hence deleted |
| 20 |
profiles? I'm wandering around in the CVS attic. I don't see them, |
| 21 |
presumably because they aren't something that was ever in portage, but |
| 22 |
the attic is pretty deep and they could possibly be there in some |
| 23 |
section I haven't noticed yet.. |

Thanks, |
