I suppose:

 (E) replace "demo" zcache with new code base and keep it
     in staging for another cycle

is another alternative, but I think gregkh has said no to that.
No I have not.  If you all feel that the existing code needs to be
dropped and replaced with a totally new version, that's fine with me.
It's forward progress, which is all that I ask for.

Hope this helps,

Hi Greg --

Cool!  I guess I mistakenly assumed that your "no new features"
requirement also implied "no fixes of fundamental design flaws". :-)

Having option (E) should make it easier to decide the best
technical solution, separate from the promotion timing and "where
does it land" question.

We'll get back to you soon...

Thanks!
Dan
