 Users should be encouraged to submit diffs to an existing ebuild if they

+diff but from a complete user-submitted ebuild, the <c>diff -u</c> command
 should be used to see what has changed; attention should be payed for
 anything from the current ebuild that should appear in the new ebuild,
 or anything in the new ebuild that should be fixed or removed.
