Everbody is allowed to do an= y experimentation and evaluation of the series at any time - of course. :) We do not have any particular release in mind, but we are not intending this release for sure. It is a good point though, that we probably should have mentioned this in our cover letter, given the timing in the current release cycle. We'll remember that in the future. :) We're just looking to get this out there now to get some feedback and hopefully advance the series forward to the point that it can be included in a release in the future.
