The topic has been stalled for unusually long time, so it won't hurt too much for it to wait for a few more days, but it wouldn't be fair to stall a topic further with just a promise to "try and find time" forever. Let's say we'll go ahead by this weekend unless we hear otherwise? I am not ultra-happy with the last step, as I personally do not see this different algorithm as "version" (in that people would always want to use version N+1 over version N when both are available) but as "variant" (in that there may be prefer to use variant N over variant N+1 depending on the circumstances), but that may be just the matter of terminology. What's important is to make sure we do not mix two algorhtims up while creating a packfile. Thanks.
