Unfortunately, since you don't care about implementing EAPIs |
| 8 |
correctly, I have to worry about it. Kinda important to make sure that |

PMS is universal, you know... |

Er, no, they aren't. They're an entirely different model. It's good to |

see you're trying to learn how to be a better programmer by avidly |
| 15 |
reading everything I write, but please pay more attention. Confusing |
| 16 |
generators and repositories is about on par with confusing a spoon and |

Ah, but I have unit tests, so I can be confident when I say that we're |
| 24 |
correctly implementing the EAPI 1 changes. Unlike you, I don't have |
| 25 |
such a high degree of confidence in Paludis contributors' (including |
| 26 |
myself) abilities to write perfect code the first time that I let |
| 27 |
changes go through without testing to ensure that they work. |
