The feed at https://packages.gentoo.org/packages/added.atom started to act erratically lately, causing a lot of "new" or "updated" entries appear in feed readers (hundreds daily). This makes it quite difficult to track which packages were actually added to the tree. As far as I remember this was certainly not an issue a month-or-so ago. For example, it contains changes like the following:

   <entry>
     <title>app-text/dvipng</title>
-    <updated>2018-11-27T20:57:02Z</updated>
-    <id>tag:packages.gentoo.org,2018-11-27:/package/app-text/dvipng</id>
-    <content type="html">app-text/dvipng is now available in Gentoo on these architectures: ~alpha amd64 arm arm64 hppa ~ia64 ~mips ppc ppc64 s390 sparc x86 ~amd64-linux ~x86-linux ~ppc-macos ~x64-macos ~x86-macos ~sparc-solaris ~x86-solaris.
