Many thanks for the quick review! Of course I consent to every change you have proposed to make (before applying). About the stale comments I've just sent out a patch. About the r-b's I think the guys in cc are the most likely candidates. Pierre should be back starting next week. Dong Jia I haven't seen in a while, but I don't know about anything. Of course I would happy if somebody less expected joins in. Thanks again! Halil
