Subject: RFC: Place of EAPI variable in ebuild
Date: Fri, 09 Nov 2007 23:55:51 +0200
Usually it's best that ebuild variables follow the order that is in
skel.ebuild. So know we should decide where to place EAPI. I suggest we
put it it after LICENSE as that's where the more technical stuff like
SLOT starts. Attached a patch for skel.ebuild.

Regards,
Petteri
