Having said all that, after re-reading the patches, I think the series is more or less solid already, so I am hoping that the next issue of "What's cooking" report can mark it as "Will merge to 'next'". Although I am not sure if an update for replacing "oops" will have enough time to come in before that happens, I do not think anything in this series is so seriously broken that would result in embarrassing history littered with incremental fix-up.
