That's why I suggested a derivative of Qseven, rather than a straight endorsement of Qseven as-is; by making EOMA "Qseven, but with these compatible changes", it would be easier to break the chicken-and-egg cycle of any board design.

Right now, to use EOMA, I need to convince a processing board maker to build me an EOMA board, and an interface board maker to build me an EOMA carrier. If EOMA was a Qseven derivative, I would face the easier option of convincing a Qseven board maker to produce me an EOMA-compliant derivative of product they already sell, even if that meant new connectors and packaging. As it is, I might design Qseven-based product in the future; there seems to be very little chance of my employer even considering EOMA.
