+# Gentoo/FreeBSD project is effectively dead. The core packages are
+# outdated and vulnerable. We do not have a fully working install,
+# and I have not been able to find anyone knowing how to create one.
+# Leaf packages are failing to build more and more frequently, some
+# simply because of our outdated base system. The profiles were marked
+# exp two months ago not to stall other developers, core packages are
+# masked for at least two months, and nowadays they have unsatisfied
+# dependencies already.
+#
+# If anyone wishes to take the effort over, please consider it urgent.
+# If not, I will slowly start removing remaining parts of FreeBSD
+# after this batch, and checking which packages can be salvaged.
+#
+# Removal in 30 days. Bug #683284.
