As we've already discussed:

* Stop committing things that aren't typo fixes without posting them to
  this list for review.

* Don't commit the EAPI 3 / 4 changes until the Council are done
  changing things, and until we have a patch for the new definition of
  EAPI 3. We don't have a definition for the new EAPI 3 yet. We also
  don't have approved summaries of any of the meetings where these
  things happened. Any changes done now are wasted effort.

* Don't mess with kdebuild until you're sure that no-one has any
  kdebuild packages installed.

And as we've not already discussed:

* When the heck did "use the highest EAPI" become policy?
