Thanks!! Thanks, Bart. It isn't easy to be maintainer of a subsystem that is being obsoleted by another. It's even less easy to gracefully hand over maintenance, as you have done.

I think there are a number of ways they could stand to be improved. -- Matthew Wilcox Intel Open Source Technology Centre "Bill, look, we understand that you're interested in selling us this operating system, but compare it to ours.
