As far as I can see, this GLEP predates EAPI and does not meet modern standards. It needs to be updated or killed with fire. |

For a start, relation to EAPI needs to be defined. This will likely require both profiles and ebuilds to use the new EAPI. |

Also, the contents of 'backwards compatibility' section are unacceptable. But that's probably going to be covered by EAPI. |

The spec itself is hard to follow, though the idea seems simple. It makes me wonder if we aren't missing something important there. |
