+Title: busybox removal from @system
+Author: Mike Gilbert <floppym@gentoo.org>
+Posted: yyyy-mm-dd
+Revision: 1
+News-Item-Format: 2.0
+Display-If-Installed: sys-apps/busybox
+Display-If-Profile: default/linux/*
+
+The sys-apps/busybox package has been removed from @system for Linux
+profiles. It was decided that this package is not necessary for a basic
+system install.
+
+If you would like to keep this package installed, please ensure it is
+present in your Portage world file.
+
+ emerge --select --noreplace sys-apps/busybox
+
+As well, the "static" USE flag has been disabled by default. It may be
+re-enabled locally via package.use if so desired.
