If there > are no additional comments can it move forward? Note that "RFC" means "here's my patches I don't think are ready to be merged". That should have a list of issues/todo. I'm not getting a good sense that possible issues are being thought about here. If I'm supposed to do that, then you'll just have to wait. Rob
