Upgrading happens between two versions. When a new version comes out, we should educate developers about it and encourage them to convert their ebuilds to use new EAPI. When this finished, we can start upgrading to a more new version of EAPI. IMHO, that should be the right way to go. However, I think there is still devs don't know about EAPI-1. If we allow multiple EAPI's to co-exist, do we need a upper limit on that number? Or as many as someone likes? then our tree IMO will become a total mess. People will not remember clearly differences between so many EAPI's. -- Zhang Le, Robert GPG key ID: 1E4E2973 Fingerprint: 0260 C902 B8F8 6506 6586 2B90 BC51 C808 1E4E 2973 -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
