Sorry - I'm using gmane over slrn (NNTP) from a work server!
Slrn splits the "nntp post" and sends it to gmane, which is
quite happy to post on behalf of sitaramc@xxxxxxxxx (my
personal address) but slrn then tries to deliver the "cc"
part using my local (work) mailer, with my work email
address as the "From".  I'm explicitly cc-ing you now, so to
you the email will appear to come from my work address.
Sorry about that!

My mistake.  I meant that I will blow it away myself, and
create a new one with the same name except it's list of deps
will exclude the one that graduated.

How?  When I update master from upstream and then tg update
on t/all?
