As I said before Gentoo is quite understaffed. First we need > people. Then we can concentrate on features :) As it happens, a lot of the features that go into EAPIs are designed to help with that. They make it easier to write good ebuilds (and harder to get away with certain QA abuses by accident), possible to write ebuilds that are less annoying and possible to write ebuilds that cover things that could not previously be covered. And, looking at it the other way, Gentoo has lost a lot of good people because they weren't prepared to put up with EAPI stagnation. --=20 Ciaran McCreesh --Sig_/jJT+yfCORaWXEsoW_MlXCYd Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name=signature.asc Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=signature.asc -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.9 (GNU/Linux) iEYEARECAAYFAkn/H6MACgkQ96zL6DUtXhG5LACg3hQ9SnzuFKGxrU5QmNzqvO2b oRoAoLxBz9bgdZ0p+okHyne90qv9Rhfj =UUyu -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --Sig_/jJT+yfCORaWXEsoW_MlXCYd--
