Yes, I've thought about this and as I mentioned in another note a few
minutes ago, realize now that you believed that to be the release model.

I now understand why you were willing to dump a change like this into
the sources a few days before a planned beta release.  Perfectly
reasonable under the more agressive release early, release often
model.

I'll back off now.
