xorg 6.8.0 now available but masked for testing on Gentoo

.. as the title states..

See the upto-the-minute status here:

http://packages.gentoo.org/search/?sstring=xorg

BTW, Gentoo KDE users may find the following addition to konqueror's
"Enhanced Browsing", aka "Web Shortcuts", somewhat useful:

Search Provider Name:
Gentoo Packages

Search URI:
http://packages.gentoo.org/search/?sstring=\{@}

URI Shortcuts:
gp,genpak

Of course, you may modify the above for your own use, but with it as
shown, I can get updated status on for example, xorg, by simply entering:

gp:xorg

in either the run dialog, or Konqueror's address bar.

(I also use gg frequently, and renamed their ggl that was google-lucky, to
gglu, so I could change ggl to shortcut to google-linux. As well, I added
as similar shortcut for my local online telco directory, Qwestdex, and
before I switched to Gentoo, had entries for Mandrake's Cooker Bugzilla
and the like. I haven't created an entry for Gentoo bugzilla yet, but I
probably will at some point.)

Hoping others find this as useful as I do.
