That's tree policy, but doesn't prevent PMS and package managers from supporting more than that number of EAPIs.

Nice way to increase peer pressure. :-) Ulrich --pgp+signed+vPUOroD7fiyMCTk Content-Type: application/pgp-signature -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.22 (GNU/Linux) iQEcBAEBCAAGBQJTh6qNAAoJEMMJBoUcYcJz6q0H/jSJpYAHzFP+TwNUmdR0Qdsw VESZNJUqpjcOCrOa/ZeEDOd6Nu/iVWsvLUn3JDgo17D2kZprkiSq7291Ez/6OS+p e+eoh2+KNDhrYrQv3R38YyYDyZTy2zixgOBEGf2zBAO/BhfM2Wf/CSUwVA1n9YTQ G4kZemQz/733vtSnBDWBIFjMe34E0LSNAvY2qloe+mdLFrEb4ROf+/z0wo2GrARn pdmKM8vMU2YMORT7UFAbu6xmYmiEF7jXrqPQtSr4YkgOK/weiYf0ytMsyljUN+83 3Qk49ZUehm8Ge17h2oc5Nik73v/oSL3KkMPR/b0vdsivYDF9Lnt2V2kA09tM2Qg= =NVff -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --pgp+signed+vPUOroD7fiyMCTk--
