No good, for two reasons. First, this is a global scope change, and we can't make global scope changes to EAPIs using current mechanisms. EAPIs have to carry on using bash 3 until the EAPI mechanism is changed. Second, by order of the Council, EAPI 3's feature list was locked several weeks ago. If we ignore that for one thing, it just means everyone else who had features that came along too late will start demanding we reconsider those too... --=20 Ciaran McCreesh --Sig_/R04FRKQ=Qpr8+H8.XmcHHiI Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name=signature.asc Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=signature.asc -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.9 (GNU/Linux) iEYEARECAAYFAkoQPU4ACgkQ96zL6DUtXhFiHACg3Dfzzc12wv4RfLbmLXCpvzSA CJMAn181oW2gVi1sv3/kufbYudFnbhy5 =7gJg -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --Sig_/R04FRKQ=Qpr8+H8.XmcHHiI--
