I really like Gentoo and I like that fact that it does a pretty

Gentoo has rolling updates, so it is always up to date. If you
want to
run the latest of everything you will need to run a ~arch system.
There
are no releases for Gentoo beyond the installation live CDs. Once
installed, provided you keep up to date, there is no difference
between a
system installed three years ago and one installed yesterday.

Hi Neil,
~arch is a little scary for me, since it's not in the stable branch.
We, you do know that you can pick which ~arch packages you want,
right? In most cases it's pretty safe to use a "keyword masked"
package, especially if the masked package is not depended on by
your core gentoo system.

Hi Zac,
Yes, I know how to unmask. But, when you say "pick which ~arch
packages...," does this mean I can search for ~arch packages too or
do I have to set the ACCEPT_KEYWORDS variable?
