There is no indication that the rebase--helper patches would make it into 2.11 even with four more weeks. I will now focus on other things that I postponed in favor of the interactive rebase patches. In fact, I *have* to focus on some quite pressing tasks that I neglected over those patches. It's not like the process would magically improve just because a release date is pushed. To the contrary, pushing the release date to allow for the rebase--helper to be included may very well have the counterintuitive effect of delaying things beyond even that pushed date "because there is now so much time left" (until there isn't). It's a variation of [Parkinson's Law](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parkinson%27s_law) ;-) Anyway, back to work, Dscho
