I just came across this again, and I think it could inspire us in some
of our recent conversations:
The Zen of Python
Beautiful is better than ugly.
Explicit is better than implicit.
Simple is better than complex.
Complex is better than complicated.
Flat is better than nested.

Since the last ebuild using the old qt4.eclass has now been removed
from the tree, the Qt team wishes to lastrite this eclass. It will be
removed in 30 days. All ebuilds should be using qt4-r2.eclass instead.

Hi!
We are getting nearer to a Qt5 beta release. Although it has already
been postponed a couple of times, we should expect it some time this
summer. This means we will start to see packages offering Qt5 support.
Pesa has already done a terrific job preparing live ebuilds and
eclasses for buildin

Yes, as P is widely used to refer to the package. I wanted something to
reflect that these
Today I would like to present to you my proposal for a new eclass with
helper functions for treating localizations: l10n.eclass (see the
attached file or [1]). Its functionality can be used in other eclasses
(such as qt4-r2 and cmake-utils) as well as directly in ebuilds.

Hi,
We'd like to start using array variables for DOCS and HTML_DOCS in
qt4-r2.eclass, as they are already more widely used in other eclasses.
Please check the attached diff and let us know what you think.
Thanks on behalf of the Qt team!

new global useflag, to replace both ass and libass local useflags
currently in media-video/{ffmpeg,mplayer,mplayer2,vlc}.
