I agree with Ceri, having a bug busting marathon during release cycle is probably bad; however, insta-MFCs are probably not a good thing anyway - even with single word fixes. I'll be keeping all of my changes in a new mailbox file. Once release cycle is over, the MFC will happen. I think the doc count is below correct. Ceri closed at least 4 IIRC, and I closed about 4-5 (some assigned to me). But whatever, we'll need to keep a "score board" next time. -- Tom Rhodes
