yup.
Thing is, since 10AM this morning I've looked at no mailing list
traffic, reviewed no patches, merged no patches. I've spent half the
day getting all the trees merged (and I last did it 24 hours ago) and
the other half weeding out compilation errors. I have this starry-eyed
theory that I shouldn't need to do any of this.
The stephen/me function is a single point of failure and right now,
it has failed. I have to push back.
