 ==== Announcements distributed over the ports tree ==== #news
 
-Some announcements about configuration changes could be presented to users when they update their ports tree. That involves a mechanism to add news items to the ports tree and a new `port news` command that allows the user to read them (and also mark them as read). Each news items could define conditions when they should be shown to the user, for example depending on OS version or if a specific port is installed. Additionally these news items should also be available on the web.

Each news items could define conditions when they should be shown to the user, for example depending on OS version or if a specific port is installed. It will need a new API in macports1.0 to check for unread items, so the port client can poll it, for example when using a `port news` command. Additionally, these news items should also be available on the web.
