I'd very interested in the different approaches here. I had

static portage tree, but that left the problem of getting needed

especially GLSA's. Your suggested approach sounds very interesting.
How big of an extra administrative burden does that create?
Maintaining our
own version controlled portage tree might be a hard sell. Thanks
for the
script - I'll take a look at it. Is there any documentation out
there about
a static portage tree?
On gentoo-dev there is a discussion going on about a sort of gentoo
stable tree. Chris Gianelloni (if i remember it correctly) stated
that he wanted to create a 2007.1 tree with the 2007.1 release and
only put security fixes and required packages of security fixes in...
I did not make it clear: He wants to take a snapshot of the tree when
2007.1 will be released and then like above.
_But_ there are like 50 more unread messages of the thread in my
mailbox, so might be this is not true anymore. Look at the gentoo-dev
archives.
