Their next release is intended to be dual-track, 6.9.0 in monolithic form as now, 7.0.0 will be the same thing only modularized. There was a bit of a discussion on that topic here a few weeks ago (in which I asked and Donnie covered a number of questions on the Gentoo approach to it), after Donnie pointed to the working roadmap document for the split. The 6.8.99 snapshot ebuilds (hard masked for testing) are the CVS development snapshots of this in portage, still unsplit, as it hasn't yet been split upstream, AFAIK. -- Duncan - List replies preferred.
