I think my first thought is to commit it as is and wait for the PRs to come it. I've had several reports of people using it in production for a while now. I know there are still some things that will change though, but I can't think of them off the top of my head. I'm still mentored, and won't be in a position to do a final tinderbox(tb) build for a bit just yet. Unfortunately, the RT ports in the tree (esp p5-) will need to change to use this instead since RT36 isn't packagable. Which is why they were still there, but they seem to have got comitted today by someone else. Also, we need to mark the other ports as deprecated and whack some of them. I'm pretty sure some of that qualifies as a sweep, so I don't know if we can do it yet, but I'm definitely not opposed to it. -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Philip M.
