+portage-2.1.2
+------------
+
+* Profiles support multiple inheritance.
+* 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}.
+
+portage-2.1.1
+------------
+
+* Profiles support use.force, package.use.force, and package.use.mask files.

+==================================

+* emerge does not necessarily update build time dependencies that are not
+  strictly required.  See the --with-bdeps option in the emerge(1) man page.

+portage-2.1.1
+==================================
+
+* emerge --search doesn't use regular expressions now anymore by default, so
+  emerge --search dvd+rw-tools now works as expected. Regular expressions can be enabled
+  by prefixing the search string with %. 
+* emerge --depclean algorithm is much safer than the old one.
+* emerge --newuse detects changes in IUSE that previously went undetected.

 * rsync option handling has been redesigned, instead of RSYNC_* variables
