Hi Mimi, This is just a very early warning, it doesn't mean it's going in -stable any time soon :) I find that giving this alert now results in more responses as people still have this patch + context in their mind. If we sent alerts such as these before we actually add patches to -stable people tend to respond less as usually they have moved to work on something else. -- Thanks, Sasha
