+Often, user-submitted ebuilds do not use the latest EAPI and may even |
| 30 |
+be several versions behind. EAPIs bring new helper functions and improved |
| 31 |
+methods for completing common tasks. It's recommended that submitted ebuilds |
| 32 |
+use the latest EAPI possible (subject to eclass constraints) to improve |
| 33 |
+the ebuild's quality and ease review. |
