 As you can see, there are multiple types of profiles to choose from.

-The preferred method of adding and removing profiles is to use [[eselect|eselect profile]]. This insures that profiles are added correctly and in the proper order. The order is very important for things to work right.

-So far in Funtoo we have used the exact same profiles than Gentoo thus Funtoo/2008.0 was strictly the same thing than Gentoo/2008.0 or the barely the same 10.0.

-. One or more "mix-ins" profiles which describe optional add-ons. 'mix-ins' are the heart of the Funtoo 1.0 profiles. Unlike the monolithic profiles which sets a massive amount of use flags and options for you, we've split them into logical add-on profiles. For instance if you want support for gnome, you would add the gnome mix-in to your current profiles. That mix-in sets all the proper use flags and such for gnome. Same with others. Want dvd support? Add that one in. Using a rhel5 kernel which requires special versions of packages such as udev? There's a mix-in for that too. Run a mail server? web server? There's mix-ins for those also. Expect this category to grow in the future as new mix-ins are created.
