Sorry to disappoint you.  If you get me on council, I'm going to ask for
a recommendation and follow it unless it looks ridiculous.  For the
GLEPs you mentioned, unless someone came forward otherwise, I'd approve
them out of hand.  As for future EAPIs, that is not a council matter
that I can see.  Why on earth can't that be done at the level of those
who care?  I.e., people who implement package managers or want EAPIs.
It seems to me all we want is consistency, and council's job is to put
package manager people into a room and tell them not to come out until
they agree on something.  If I'm a councilor, I really don't care what
that is.

I'll listen to what you want for future EAPIs, but I don't think it's
council's job to decide.

Regards,
Ferris
