Just to give an additional reasoning as explained by Noah the leak is not severe enough, and batching the update in the point release thus alows admins to just have the point release update to roll out including this, rather than having an out of order maintenance of the service. This is not to put you additional work on your shoulder. Regards, Salvatore
