not to mention that the current released version of mimic (.2) has a bug that is potentially catastrophic to cephfs, known about for months, yet it's not in the release notes. would have upgraded and destroyed data had i not caught a thread on this list. hopefully crowing like this isn't coming off as too obnoxious, but yeah, the release process seems quite brittle at the moment.
