10 This shows up in eselect news list (and so on), and portage will tell
11 you when you have unread news items. Note that it only shows up if
12 you have <udev-201 installed, but all news is in that repository.

14 Generally you want to read those BEFORE you go installing packages,
15 since it may pertain to a package you're about to update.

17 The original news item was less detailed, and IMO probably a bit
18 easier to read. Additional stuff was added to it later from the looks
19 of it. It isn't hard to read per-se, but there is a lot more going on
20 in it.
