Sure. But we don't have a spec of what EAPI 3 is, so we can't do
anything with it. We also don't know when we'll have a spec of what
EAPI 3 is, so there's no point in tinkering with PMS until we do. We've
tried to avoid having huge chunks of "todo" on the main branch since we
started viewing PMS as being more or less correct, and adding them back
in again is a huge step backwards.

We did all the original EAPI 3 work on a branch and didn't merge it
until it was done for a very good reason.

Something that wasn't there when I sent the original email, as you
know very well.
