GMANE provides an alternative service for most mailing lists. c.f. bug 424647

Attached. I could probably use a little description for DEFINED_PHASES
from those who know more about it than myself. That'd be appreciated.
Thanks,
Thomas

Meeting Topics:
===============
Technical Issues:
- Label profiles with EAPI for compatibility checks:
Should there be labels in the profiles telling package managers what
EAPI the profile uses. This proposal raised some concerns that
developers would modify current profiles and bump the EAPI which would
harm users' systems.
Conclusion:
Profile EAPI files are approved for use in gentoo-x86 profiles.
The file for use in profiles is 'eapi'. All current profiles
are EAPI="0" and only new EAPIs can be marked with the profile
EAPI markers. Any developer profiles can be marked with a new
EAPI.
- Retroactive EAPI change: Call ebuild functions from trusted working
directory:
Donnie(dberkholz) commented that it may not be needed to add something
to EAPI=0 that is in all the Package Managers.
Conclusion:
Approved. This change applies to all current EAPIs(0,1,2).
- Metadata variable for DEFINED_PHASES
Conclusion:
Approved. Infra will do a full regen of the metadata cache once
portage has support for it.
