This involves setting the content of the 'eapi' file to "2" and bumping up the required portage version. This seems like progress to me. Often, developers are complaining that they can't use SLOT syntax in profiles (I know that is EAPI-1). Since, the only time we can bump EAPI syntax in profiles is upon a new directory creation, this seems like a good time to me. The new profiles are still in flux until the official stages/cd's are produced. Also, another good reason is: "why not?" I don't think any Gentoo user can avoid EAPI-2 up til now anyway. Any comments? No comments means it will be decided off-list. Timeframe: 1 week from now. -Jeremy
