The fewer knobs to tweak we have, the better. I do not know what the best plan is for changes to update things that supposedly help supporting pre-2.0 boxes, without us being able to test, though. I think I am OK with "this patchset I try to cover everybody, but this and that systems are untested and untestable by me" and I am also OK with "this patchset does not address this and that systems at all, as there is no way to test them by me". Thanks.
