+We have generated a new set of profiles for Gentoo installation. These are now
+called 13.0 instead of 10.0. Everyone should upgrade as soon as possible (but
+please make sure sys-apps/portage is updated to current stable *before* you
+switch profile).
+This brings (nearly) no user-visible changes. Some new files have been added
+to the profile directories that make it possible for the developers to do more
+fine-grained use flag masking (see PMS-5 for the details), and this formally
+requires a new profile tree with EAPI=5.
+In the course of this change, the "server" profiles will be removed; they do
+not exist in the 13.0 tree anymore. You should migrate to the corresponding
+parent profile. This may change the default value of some use-flags. The
+specific setting in "server" was
+ USE="-perl -python snmp truetype xml"
+You may want to check the setting of these flags after switching profile, but
+otherwise nothing changes.
