Zen committed to portage!

Just today, zen has been added to portage. This is great news for anybody using gentoo because it makes obtaining zen a whole lot easier and contained within the distribution package management, and it's great news for us because it should bring a lot more users from gentoo (it is always good to expand the user base)

Thanks for the continual support guys! Zen is keyworded as ~ , so add the entry to your package.keywords (unless you are crazy and are running all ~) and emerge. (This is also explained in the Zen gentoo install tutorial now :D)

I don't expect or necessarily want -rc versions of zen to be added to portage. Although they are usually often stable for every day usage, if it was a possibility they would not be keyworded and probably have a bigger warning.
