Roland - what is that status here, why r u holding this submission back 
for so long?

These patches originally posted by Sean and product of long process of 
definition with both Jason and Sean with constant updating you. They r 
out for comments for *very* long while with adoption of all changes 
proposed by open source work along the way.
Please comment if anything is missing, we have more patches dependent on 
the verbs extension concepts presented in this series which we can not 
submit due to the hold up.

Thanks,
Tzahi
