EAPI 5 features
===============
The council voted on the list of EAPI 5 features. A detailed list was
sent to the gentoo-project mailing list before the meeting:
<http://article.gmane.org/gmane.linux.gentoo.project/2140>
Chainsaw remarked that in future a short plain text summary for each
item should be provided.
* Slot operator dependencies (bug 229521)
* Sub-slots (bug 424429)
* Profile IUSE injection (bug 176467)
* At-most-one-of operator for REQUIRED_USE (bug 354219)
* EBUILD_PHASE_FUNC variable (bug 390765)
* Mandate GNU find (bug 384157)
* new* commands can read from standard input (bug 263565)
* Parsing of the EAPI assignment is mandatory (bug 402167)

- Accepted unanimously.
* econf --disable-silent-rules (bug 379497)
- Accepted unanimously for EAPI 5.
- Rejected applying it retroactively to EAPI 4 (0 yes, 4 no, 1 abstain).
Therefore, no vote necessary for EAPIs 0 to 3.

- Several council members remarked that this is a controversial
feature and that it should at least be postponed to a later EAPI.
* License groups in ebuilds (bug 287192)

- No support from any council member for any of these in EAPI 5.
