I would like to avoid the situation in which Chao-Ying et. al. work hard to come up with a plan, factor the patches, etc., and then we decide that the code is not going to be ready for 4.3. I had originally pushed this work back to 4.4, but as 4.3's been delayed, perhaps there's an opportunity for it in 4.3. If, however, the work isn't ready, then I'd rather not take up a lot of Chao-Ying's time now; instead, we can just wait for 4.4 to get closer. At the same time, of course, there's not much point in you investing in looking at the branch if Chao-Ying doesn't think it's ready. So, let's do this: 1. Chao-Ying, would you please work on any remaining issues that you feel need resolution. Then, post your merge plan, ala DFP. 2. Joseph, at that point, would you please invest a a little bit of time (a couple of hours) to look at the branch, and provide some feedback? Please provide comments to Chao-Ying, and also please let me know whether you think the work is nearly ready for inclusion?
