28 None of it is stable. So, what's your point?

30 The commit is not broken. It just masks a package you care about which has Py2.7.
31
32 Adjust the mask, drop the ebuild, or simply remove the mask. I would happily apologize for a mistake, but reverting something that is largely not in error seems silly.
33
34 Again, this is a massive commit, but it should be the last time. Look at the previous sets of masks... impact vs inconvenience was pretty low.
