The question is then, what features do people want there? I've seen a few things mentioned, but I presume there are two restrictions - 1) feature needs to be reasonably useful to enough people 2) feature needs to be implementable in a short enough timeframe So EAPI 2 is not "everything shiny", but a small iterative improvement to EAPI 1. Suggest features then and let's discuss! -- gentoo-dev@lists.gentoo.org mailing list
