It was more like "could, if you want to help us keep clean history
going forward", rather than "should" ;-) Thanks for resending.
I've locally queued this series after seeing the end-result matches
what has been cooking.
Traditionally we waited for a few days after a release to see if we
do not receive regression reports that require us to issue brown
paper bag fixes before rewinding "next" and opening a new cycle. I
am hoping that it will happen in a few days.
My responses may be slower than usual today (i.e. Monday 26th), as I
would need to be sitting in dentist's for a few hours.
