Um, one of the devs wrote up a lengthy explanation. Some other devs |
| 11 |
suggested the message be trimmed down a bit as a news item. I thought |
| 12 |
the lenghty message was detailed and articulate (on gentoo-dev). |
| 13 |
The changes, if you read the thread, are quite extensive, imho. |

I have so hacked up my old setup that I'm reticent to update per the |
| 19 |
news item; eventually I'll have to. So do post back any tidbits |
| 20 |
you discover, as I believe there are a myriad of schemes to perform |
| 21 |
partial sync/updates to various types of codes an active gentooer |
| 22 |
might have on their system. emaint now has a very large role. |
