Hi Ed

Is BIRT causing a regression in 4.14 or was it in the same state in 4.13? 
If the latter, I'm a bit concerned to do this in RC2.

Folks,

I'll give the BIRT team until the end of today take respond and/or take 
action, and failing that, I think it best that I take "executive action" 
and limit BIRT's contribution to the feature needed by the train's 
downstream consumers.  It's also probably best to do as Ed suggests, 
I.e., remove the BIRT custom category as well because I have no idea 
what user-level functionality is provided by this small feature.

If anyone has concerns or objections, please speak up as soon as 
possible, because tomorrow I'll take action.

Regards,
Ed
