Hi all, 

you may have already seen the announcement on the www.gentoo.org front page- 
our binary package hosting finally went "officially live".

https://www.gentoo.org/news/2023/12/29/Gentoo-binary.html

From the announcement: "To speed up working with slow hardware and for overall 
convenience, we’re now also offering binary packages for download and direct 
installation! For most architectures, this is limited to the core system and 
weekly updates - not so for amd64 and arm64 however. There we’ve got a 
stunning >20 GByte of packages on our mirrors, from LibreOffice to KDE Plasma 
and from Gnome to Docker. Gentoo stable, updated daily."

If you would like to have a package included in the amd64/arm64 builders, 
please check if it builds on one of the named profiles without any useflag
changes. If yes, drop me an e-mail or suggest it on #gentoo-binhost.

At this place I'd also like to thank everyone who contributed and helped to
make this possible, from the GPG signature support and Portage improvements
all the way to the implementation on the Infra side.

Cheers & Enjoy! -a
