Replying to my own message. :) |

Now that EAPI is supported by stable Portage (3.0.20-r6 went stable |
| 10 |
on the last arch today), I would like to ask the council to deprecate |
| 11 |
EAPI 6, both for ebuilds and for profiles. |
| 12 |
|

In the past, the council had also banned EAPIs. However, that didn't |
| 14 |
make much of a practical difference because an EAPI cannot be added |
| 15 |
to eapis-banned in layout.conf unless all ebuilds are gone. Maybe we |
| 16 |
should have a rule like the following instead: |
| 17 |
"A deprecated EAPI is considered banned when the Gentoo repository |
| 18 |
no longer contains any ebuilds using it." |
