- Added Packages:
- sys-fs/xfsdump
- sys-fs/ecryptfs-utils
- sys-fs/btrfs-progs
- "Suspended" drivers:
- madwifi-ng (modded the ebuild to compile against 2.6.29.1, but the new kernel release has changed internal structures -> avoiding to fix with broken hand-made patches)
- madwifi-ng-tools (without madwifi-ng makes no sense)
- Other notes:
- btrfs has been included, along with the associated btrfs-progs package
- 4th release (2008-12-20)
- 2.6.27.10 kernel + reiser4

- Added drivers:

- Removed drivers:
- ipw3945: latest version does not compile against 2.6.27, the driver has been deprecated in favor of iwlwifi driver mantained by the kernel team
- Other notes
- keymap selection at boot has been fixed: it was my fault when writing the spec files, I did not realize the connection between the keymaps/consolefont init scripts and the impossibility to keep the selected keymap, that is done earlier at boot (even before rc scripts)
- madwifi-ng has been reintegrated upon request

- Added packages:
- app-arch/p7zip

- Removed drivers:
- madwifi-ng / madwifi-ng-tools (ath5k is enough mature and madwifi-ng-0.9.4 doesn't compile against 2.6.26)
- Changes over default configuration:
- e2fsprogs 1.41.1 (with subsequent dependencies: e2fslibs, com_err, ss)
- Other notes:
- e2fsprogs is included also in stage3, that means you'll have to unmask that also to prevent downgrades (deps also)
- 2nd release (2008-06-16)
- 2.6.25-reiser4-r5 (based upon 2.6.25.6, don't let the name mislead you)
- gcc 4.3.1
- glibc-2.7-r2
- linux-headers-2.6.25-r4
