PS. I should add, that in these wfh days, I'm relying on CI to be able
to test changes on some generations of hw that I don't physically have
with me.  It's easy to take for granted, I did until I thought about
what I'd do without CI.  So big thanks to all the people who are
working on CI, it's more important these days than you might realize
:-)
