Hi, everyone.

Since there were no major objections raised against the proposal of
switching user/group management to dedicated acct-*/* packages, I'd like
to proceed as follows:

1. Commit GLEP 81 draft (as of last posting [1], plus patchset links
update).

2. Commit eclass change part of patchset v4 [2].

3. Give people some time for wider testing.

At this point, the new eclasses would be non-binding, i.e. you will
still be able to commit new packages using user.eclass old style.
The eclasses would be bound with usual eclass stability requirements,
i.e. some API changes may happen if necessary.

4. If no major issues arise, submit GLEP 81 for formal approval.

Once GLEP 81 is formally approved, using user.eclass directly becomes
deprecated and new packages are expected to use acct-*/*.

If anyone has any major objections against this, please voice them ASAP.
