Because Arfrever isn't a developer anymore, none of the other developers are very familiar with the eclass code, and we'd really like to limit any additional complexity introduced now (because we'd like to start removing complexity from it soonish). So I've been reviewing the patches carefully before committing them, and that takes time. I was on holiday for the past two weeks, but I will try to continue tomorrow. Cheers, Dirkjan
