Nothing major, just a few minor issues (I'll admit I'm late):
"* Portage must extend portageq to implement a command which
returns whether or not the profile used for a given repository ID
matches a certain base path (e.g. portageq profile_used
default-linux/sparc/sparc64/2004.3 gentoo-x86)."
Wording here is a bit unclear, I assume it's supposed to mean wether or
not the (any) used profile belongs the the given repoid and is (a
subprofile of) the given profile name. Using "path" here is dangerous,
e.g. portageq profile_used base gentoo-x86.

As any substantial change results in a new news item should there be an
optional "Obsoletes" header? Could be used to make sure people only see
the most current version (without relying on rsync to wipe deleted
files).

In the beginning, there was nothing. And God said, 'Let there be
Light.' And there was still nothing, but you could see a bit better.
