Trying to include things that aren't implemented or things that are controversial will delay it. It's difficult to make time estimates for anything that's not implemented yet. It's trivial to do the EAPI-1 bump if we only include things that are already implemented. I can have a sys-apps/portage release in the tree this week with EAPI-1 support if we choose to do that. Looking at bug #174380, I'd say that EAPI-1 should certainly include #174405, #174410, and #179380 since they're all implemented and relatively non-controversial. Anything more than those can lead to potential delays.
