man, fix your line length.  what a nub you are.

we're going with oldnet by default in stable and that'll be what the GDP has 
to worry about.  newnet will still be there, but people will have to manually 
opt out of oldnet and opt in to newnet.  i dont think we need to worry about 
documenting it in the handbook for now ... the bundled files with openrc are 
sufficient.
