Should those contributors also vote? Do they have any formal status? Do we have established procedures for that case? By the way, for everyone else, there is a forums thread about this topic here: <http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-935812-start-0-postdays-0-postorder-asc-highlight-.html> I guess the contributors follow gentoo-dev, so they at least can voice their concerns, if any. Also, requiring a rewrite of all existing ebuilds doesn't sound like a good idea. I think this should be designed not to require a rewrite, and then the concern about wasted time disappears.
