Thanks very much. I just picked this up on top of my 'ab/t7610-timeout' branch and pushed it out to ttaylorr/git to double-check your results against CI. (Not that I don't trust you, of course, but I'm feeling like I should be extra-cautious ;-)). Assuming that all looks good, then I'll push out a new version of 'next' and dependent branches to the usual spots so that we can get 'next' back to green. Thanks for working on this so quickly. Thanks, Taylor
