And, furthermore, there is one thing I find really confusing,
I do not see the message v2 quoted below which had an updated commit message,
due to that Benjamin Tissoires request.
It was from my point of view sent on 2/27/20 11:03 PM,
but I cannot find it neither on spinics, nor on marc.info.
That is funny.
Did it reach you guys at all?
Or should I re-send it just in case?
Thanks
Bernd.
