Ciaran, I've talked with the pkgcore people and they don't use the EAPI's (or PMS) in the first place. This essentially leaves you writing documents you're requiring for paludis support. As this seems to be mostly a PM issue, it should be taken elsewhere. To that end, here is a gentoo-portage-dev mailing list that is more appropriate for minor process issues such as those brought up below. I think that ending this discussion here and moving it over to a forum more appropriate to package manager development would reduce the temperature around your proposals and get them implemented (as Zac seems willing to do so). While I realize this is a general purpose mailing list, it is general purpose, and there is a mailing list specifically for portage development.
