This series of patch series was something where I wasn't immediately
sure for how well-received it will be. In order to make progress and not
be busy with memory leak fixes for the next couple years I had to keep a
steady pace that wasn't too slow. But sending out a 20-patch series
every other week could feel overwhelming to some folks.

So I'm happy to hear that this is well-received overall. Thanks, and
also thanks for your reviews!
