To be honest Geoff, as soon as I started the emerge and noticed the 21.4  
nomenclature I presumed that the 22.x version that you'd alluded to
was a development package.

As you say, it'll hit "the tree" (the stable one that is) soon enough  
(actually, when I did the emerge I noticed some other packages that I'd  
not heard about like the beta of kde 3.4 so there should be quite a few
updates/upgrades heading my way in the near future!).

Using gtk2 as it's widget set? Well that's not really something I'm likely  
to notice yet, I'll have enough on my plate learning the basics :D (like  
the tetris in the tools version :P ). The only downside really is once  
I've ploughed
through the tutorials etc, to find enough reason to use it to become  
familiar with it.

Ha, at least they seem to have moved away from the default diarrhoel  
vegetarian greenie brown for the background screen that was used last time  
I'd looked at emacs! :D
