20 Yeah, doesn't have to be you. So we should rather look out for more
21 people; maybe I'll try to have a stab at it at some later point, after

23 valid reason to hold back removal, everything that wonders why EAPI
24 0 is still around will agree with that...

26 "... we should be happy to have a toolchain ..." confirms that; so,
27 who's up for trying to accomplish an EAPI 5 or 6 eclass in an overlay?
