The only reason all this takes so long is because getting anything done |
9 |
with EAPIs involves wasting months dealing with people who demand to |
10 |
know why their favourite unicorn isn't there yet, why the EAPI process |
11 |
isn't what they want it to be, why EAPIs have to exist at all, why we |
12 |
have to care about stability, why we have to change things, why we |
13 |
can't change things, etc etc. |

If getting things quickly is a goal, then you should ask the Council to |
16 |
look into reducing the amount of public discussion and concensus that's |
17 |
necessary to deliver a new EAPI. |
