I just committed gentoo-sources-2.6.31 to the portage tree.

gentoo-sources-2.6.30-r3 contains a fix for a security flaw that also comes complete with some exploit code.
Apparently, it only affects 2.6.30 so if you gentoo-sources-2.6.30 please upgrade to r3.
I just committed it, so it should hit the mirrors soon after I post this.
Thanks to everyone who brought to my attention and thanks kerframil for the links below that provide additional information.

Just a quick note to say we have released gentoo-sources-2.6.29-r5 which includes linux 2.6.29.4.
Give it a test, please, as we plan on asking for 2.6.29 stablizing real soon™ .

I just released a separately masked version of portpeek. It contains a new feature to handle the ~ (tilde) in the package.* files.
If specified with the -t argument, the code will retrieve the tilde indicated line, and look to see if a later version is stabilized.
If it is, the ~tilde package is removed.
I recommend backing up your files before trying this, as it’s new and WFM(tm) but I don’t want to hose anyone’s files.
If you do encounter any errors, please open a bug in bugzilla and attach the backup of file you made previous to running the command.
Thanks

Just a quick note to say gentoo-sources-2.6.29-r1 was just put in the portage tree. This release includes the 2.6.29.1 patch which has a fix for forcedeth issues. Also included are the ext4 filesystem patches. This is definitely a must upgrade for ext4 users.

I just released gentoo-sources-2.6.28-r4. Amoung other patches, it includes four patches that help prevent data loss on ext4 filesystems during a crash. So, if you use ext4 and gentoo-sources, you might want to upgrade to r4 when it hits the mirrors.
Thanks to the hardened team for identifying those patches and making it easy to include them in genpatches.
The changes for this release of genpatches can be found here [1].

I think this is complete. I incorporated everyone’s ideas and made my own icon to avoid any license issues real or imagined.
Here’s the latest snapshot. If all goes well, I will submit the application to the AndAppStore.
UPDATE: Got my phone, today! I hope you enjoy using this FREE program as much I did making it.

I changed the background image and modified the font. I think it looks better. It would be really nice to have one of these phones.
