 portage-2.1.2
 ------------
 
+* ACCEPT_LICENSE and package.license allow packages with unaccepted licenses to
+  be masked.
+* Ebuilds support default USE flags via +flag in IUSE.
+* New-style virtuals are now usable for packages that depend on themselves for
+  bootstrap.
+* Profiles support multiple inheritance and package.use.
+* CONFIG_PROTECT and CONFIG_PROTECT_MASK both support files (not just
+  directories).
+* Collision protection handles symlinks properly.
+* Dependencies can be satisfied by installed packages that do not have matching
+  ebuilds in the portage tree or overlay.
+* Emerge automatically ignores blockers that are made irrelevant by an upgrade.
+* Emerge builds a complete dependency graph in order to ensure correct merge
+  order and detection of circular dependencies.
+* The world and system sets allow automatic update of all installed slots.
 * DEPEND atoms support SLOT dependencies of the form ${CATEGORY}/${PN}:${SLOT}.
+* Development: Extend PYTHONPATH support to allow overriding the hardcoded 
+  /usr/lib/portage/pym for development/testing purposes
